I have been unable to pull the name of the software I used out of my old mind for the output of the Kodak DC40 I won at a User Group Breakfast raffle sponsored by EK. I know I used Photoshop very early on. Got free copies when I was working on Pagemaker 4.0 at Aldus in about 1992. That DC40 allowed me to pay my mortgage for a few years putting images on eBay of the hundreds of pieces of camera kit I "Bought - Sold - Traded" at the traveling camera "Swap Meets" on the west coast. But many other programs, all mentioned by the rest of you in your responses, passed thru my hands and onto a crowded bookshelf filled with colored cardboard slip cases, containing full color glossy manuals. You remember those good old days, don't you? Now you get a CD or DVD with the software and a PDF of a black and white manual. Personally, I prefer to have a book open when I'm thrashing about with a new program. Don't like reading my manuals on the screen. But getting ready to move from Jenner three years ago, I stood over a utility trailer and disassembled several dozen of those old bricks for recycling. Threw three Apple 20" Trinitron monitors on top. Kept the 17", but it's unused. Sad, but needed. I still have too much crap. But I digress, as I usually do. Sorry.
