I think my raw editing software (image data_)consumes alot of cpu resources, like the c5s, single target editing.
I'm sure the LR is great since many users highly recommend it, multi-targets editing with very few cpu demand.
There's a slight chance that my oldie pc can run the LR with no waiting time. I will find out later. But I'm not sure if my copy of win xp sp3 still exist in my home. LR3 requires SP3.
I've googled IPS monitors, it's strength is the super wide viewing angle 178 degree without color distortion. In my situation, I don't really need IPS because 2 of my samsungs, 24" tft & 22"lcd, they both don't have any angle viewing problems. But,......, these samsungs are not reliable. Once it dies, I'll switch to LG/asus 27s. Anyways, photography is only one of my hobbies, I don't have any clients.
But, the apple mac store has the 27"imac which catches my eyes. $1699 + tax , so around $1900
Been using pc for 16 years since 1995, maybe it's time to try a mac. it has i5 quad core, 4GB ram, 1TB hd, ati6000 series video, plus a thundbolt port if I remember correctly. and it has 4 usb2.0, not the 3.0
the hardware should be an overkill since I only have one usage, photo editing. and it's not commercial, just personal use.
But, I'm still missing the 1635 2.8, it's about $12000 hkd
idk, will see
thanks for the inputs earlier |
