If PS 6 is any slower in Classic than it is booted to OS 9 natively, it's not enough that I notice it. I'm benchmark-wise, it probably does gaussian blurs at large radiuses on large files significantly slower.... but really, how often do you do that? I'm guessing the Rev B iMac had more to do with the slowness than the Classic, given that there's no graphics hardware acceleration in OS X for his machine. -- Jeremy Derr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Any statements herein represent my opinion and do not represent those of my employer.
