I hear you, Illustrator and Acorbat CS5 is a nightmare on Vista and Xp for me. Photoshop CS5 is so F%$^&*G slow I could die as far as that goes so is IN and AI.
PS is not (&$%*^$# slow with 4 cores, 8Gb RAM and using the 64bit version, Anything but slow.

I'm going 64 bit as soon as CD Xwhat ever gets there
Don't put it off. Spend the money, get a cheap AMD and make the move. It's the chicken and the egg, the more people that are using Win 7 64 the sooner Corel will feel OK about dumping the old OSes. Corel are clearly following the user base rather than leading the users. Leading the users is our job. The more seeds that can be planted the green the garden of X6 will be.
You know I didn't suffer any pain at all moving to Win 7 64. Not one single application with an issue, nothing that didn't perform better and the computer is way stable. You need to make the change David so you can add another qualified voice to the move to 64bit.

Ad that to th efact that there are cost up to $12,000 for RIPS, dongles and printers it means a highbred 23/64 bit network for some time for me.
Perhaps but I doubt there is a really good reason you shouldn't move David. Bar the obvious $$$$ for new hardware. It's pointless to use a 64bit OS unless you up the RAM.
A laser engraver is hardly a complex output device. Can't they stick an old computer in as a print server? Most of them only print 1 bit. Give me a link to one of these terrible divers.

No real reason to move yet since my main application does not run native 64 bit. I'm making the move with my next new work station but at this time I'mbetter off wainting until I see which way the water flows. May be Windows 8 or something else who knows.

I hear you, it's plain stupid to cripple your manufacturing.
