Dennis, your description above was a work of art in itself. It should be
published as is.... (I cut it because I'm writing too much tonight and
felt I ought to save bandwidth)... I'm trying to think of a suitable
format: maybe set in Bodoni and gliceed !? :- )

I hesitate to apply epithets to one I haven't met, but Dennis, I think you
sound like what is, I believe, called a power user. Some of us are more,
um, organic... which is to say my system is already faster than I am. (I
did BTW notice a terrific difference in Photoshop when I went to the G4 --
previously a large file was like watching paint dry, and it became like
word processing, almost. If at all possible i intend to leave it at that.)
