is there anybody here who uses a 15" powerbook 1ghz and the new adobe cs apps?
i'm wondering how "smooth" they work? any stickyness? i'm especially interested in photoshop cs. is it anything like working with photoshop 5.5 under OS 9?
i downloaded the trial version of ps and illustrator, and the performance (on my 466 g4 640 RAM) seems to be about the same as with ps 7 and illustrator 10 (maybe even a bit slower). not that great.

do you think 768 MB is going to be enough?

I am on a Ti1GHz, 512 RAM, Photoshop, InDesign. Working doing web and UI design + print stuff.
Can't really complain about performance, though I think adding extra 512 of RAM becomes a topic pretty soon.
I don't know about the comparison with 5.5 under OS 9. I think in X Photoshop has been added so much eye-candy interface-wise that it will not react as fast as 5.5 in 9.
But one thing that really differs is the stability. I have worked with many different PS versions under OS 9 and seen a load of crashes... Under X I won't even mind some sluggish behavior, but I can enjoy a decent reliable system and software at least.

I'm on a Rev B 17" pb 1.33 with 1 GB of RAM and use it alot. I can have all the apps running at once except Illustrator. If I run Illustrator with more than one other CS app going I get crashes.

I think any powerbook will run it fine, since my iBook 800 G3 (640mb) runs it great. And i use this machine all day with the CS apps (until apple releases new G5s)

I'm on a G4 TiBook with 768MB of ram and Photoshop CS takes (what seems like) forever to open. I'm still waiting on the tryout for Pagemaker CS.
