Consider it revenge for your post instilling in me a craving for spaghetti or taglietelle with pesto with added garlic (why you would be to blame for me initially misreading your post is another debate altogether )

The Gimp...which I suspect you've already given a burl, so I merely raise it for your response. Myself, I mostly work with my photos in Apple Aperture, and if I need to take one further than Aperture or its plugins can provide, I take it to The Gimp. I wish I could afford Photoshop CS ("Costs Shitloads"), or, rather, see the worth in it (<---subjective opinion here: that is, worth it to me). I'm considering Elements again, though from what little I have seen it looked like, instead of enhancing it, they were dumbing it down.
I've never been able to convince myself PSCS is worth it to me. There are times that I'd like it, but I know I'd never use most of what's there anyway. I do like Adobe Lightroom, though (it's a photo processing workflow software like Aperture - I think Lightroom came out first, though.) - started playing with it when it was still in beta and got hooked

I occasionally use Elements - version 4! Never had reason to upgrade...

That's why I'm considering turning my lappie into a Hackintosh - because I know it works with my model. I'll still probably go with Ubuntu though, or/and one of the "instant on" OS's, depending on how they look. Actually, I think I can try Presto now in beta form...might go have a look...

Cheers,

So what you also need is a collection of OSes you can boot from memory key, and of course enough memory keys for all of them...

Having just had a look I'm tempted to try Presto on my laptop (I'm trying to get over my addiction to trying every OS I come across - this isn't helping!) - OK, it's actually a work laptop, but... *shrugs*
