BTW this is not meant to start an OS war, please.
I was pondering this last night. Lets see if i can convey the thoughts.;-)
When i decided to up grade a camera back in film days, i just did,
then add the film and carried on.
Now i;m kinda stuck between the proverbial rock and a hard place.
Neither the PC i have nor the iBook have enough umph or proper OS to
upgrade my editing programs such asLR2 to LR3. That's not a problem
unless i stick with the cameras i have or up grade to something LR2
can handle Raw wise, like a D700 or D300s. I;m not even sure the new
cameras like the D3100 and D7000 Raw files can be used.
The jpegs i shoot with my K10D are fine sharpness wise so i don't
bother with Raw, however i have noticed with the Nikons with the
higher mp's shooting in Raw is the way to go to get sharper photos, at
least with the D200, which after 4 years i have figured out.
So when i comes time to upgrade, if i'm allowed, it looks like not
only the expense of the camera, possibly lenses as well, but new
computers and software.
Something i dont remember having to worry about in the film days.

Didn't you know, you're supposed to replace your computer every year or
two anyway, so you shouldn't have that problem...
