    Hello!
    I'd like to run the windows-version of Photoshop 6.0 on an iMac under Parallels. Does this work? How fast does Photoshop run?
    Do I need 2 GB RAM or is 1 GB enough?

    Thanks for replies!

    I have CS2 running under Parallels. It works. It isn't as fast as it would be if it used both cores. Photoshop eats RAM for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Enough is whatever will fit in your machine plus a few gig. No, 1g is not enough.
