1. Re: Running PC version of photoshop on MAC, any differences?
c.pfaffenbichler Jan 17, 2010 11:11 PM (in response to TF22Raptor2)Application Frame seems to be one thing PC-users like to simulate the PC-experience.
Edit: Sorry, if You really run in emulation that point is irrelevant anyway.
Other than that I kind of doubt the wisdom of running Photoshop in an emulation.
I have no experience with such matters, but it seems viable to get a cross-grade – there might be some red tape involved, though, judging from the posts here.

2. Re: Running PC version of photoshop on MAC, any differences?
Reynolds (Mark) Jan 18, 2010 4:58 AM (in response to TF22Raptor2)There are two ways to run windows on a new Intel mac. You can boot up your machine into Windows using Bootcamp - all you will need is a license to run The Windows OS. This will run the Windows version of Photoshop natively, in exactly the same way as if you were running it a Windows PC. With all the OS cludge, virus, efficiency issues that I love to mention so often.
There is also the option of buying Parallels or VmWare Fusion

…Or you can get a crossgrade allowing you to run Photoshop as a mac version!!

Marian Driscoll Jan 18, 2010 5:41 AM (in response to Reynolds (Mark))I would also suggest a crossgrade if you want to run Photoshop in Mac with the lowest system overhead (unless you dual boot).
And for clarification, there is no emulation. Since we're all running on the same type of processor now we call this virtualization. It is much less messy than emulation.

Mark loves to mention that so often because he is oblivious to the fact that Max OS X 10.6 (aka Snow Leopard) now includes very limited anti-virus protection. Previous releases of the Mac kitty are left unprotected. Why does Apple put anti-virus software on new Macs if one does not have to mess with the issues that Mark loves to mention? Maybe Mark does not know Mac so well.
