Disagree. I don't know what you do with PS. I often work with 120-130mb
files from 4000 dpi scans of 35mm film and I like to use layers when
making adjustments. Getting a 300mb SATA drive with big buffer as drive
3, putting a big cache on it and another cache on drive 2, with the
Windoze cache on the boot drive finally brought long waits gazing at the
drive light under control. Still, with 2gb of RAM and a 2.8ghz Pentium
4, processing many kinds of adjustments to these files pins the CPU at
100% for too long. There is so far simply no such thing as too much
power for PS IMHO.
