Then you'd be a prime candidate for either VMWare, Bochs or WineX. I've gotten WINE to do some things it wasn't supposed to do - and I'm working with Photoshop now...getting close - but it's tricky...just a matter of "faking" then environment enough... I have to do graphics "high end" for some projects I'm involved with - and CMYK is imperative...so I just run Photoshop and Illustrator in my VMWare session of XP - easier to deal with et. al. -- Thu Dec 26 23:40:00 EST 2002 11:40pm up 1 day, 14:25, 5 users, load average: 1.03, 0.48, 0.27 ------------------------------------------------------------------ | __ __ | kuhn media australia | | / ,, /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |=================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | | ;"""/ / | | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU | ------------------------------------------------------------------ * linux user:267497 * RH 7.3+ * PC/Mac/Linux/Networking/Consulting ------------------------------------------------------------------ "`You ARE Zaphod Beeblebrox?' `Yeah,' said Zaphod, `but don't shout it out or they'll all want one.' `THE Zaphod Beeblebrox?' `No, just A Zaphod Bebblebrox, didn't you hear I come in six packs?' `But sir,' it squealed, `I just heard on the sub-ether radio report.
