Unfortunately I'm not certain of this in Win 8 but it's probably still an option. I'm currently running a copy of V 9 this way (xp-mode in Win7) and it works pretty well. Hope it helps [/quote] Yes perhaps it is solution, I hope that in new Windows virtual XP works. Thanks Andrew :-) [/quote] Yes! Windows 7 and Windows 8 will allow you to install Oracle Virtual Box. And on the Virtual Box you install your Windows XP, and then install Version 12 on that virtual Box. If you have Windows XP, Windows 7 or Windows 8, you can download ORACLE Virtual Box - FOR FREE!, and in the virtual "hard disk" you can install your version 12. You will then have one (1) computer, with two (2) operating systems. Go to the Oracle Virtual box website here www.virtualbox.org When you work with Virtual box, and install it, you will asked to allocate, meaning saying how much of your RAM will be used with your Virtual Box. Dont worry, the amount of RAM you say your Virtual Box to use, will ONLY be used when you work inside your virtual box. When you close down your virtual Box, your computer OUTSIDE the virtual box will still use the same RAM as you had before. It will work perfect for you

No, you are NOT, just install the Virtual Box on your computer, Windows 7, or 8 :-)

Hey there Phil, I have Paint Shop Pro, X4 I believe, Photoshop CS5 and Photo-PAINT (now using X6). I use all the tools and find that while there are reasons to use all three, for the most part Corel Photo-PAINT is my tool of choice and I guess I'll list the reasons.
Paint Shop Pro's tools are jerky, inaduaquate for professional use, specifically for N color space and real color management. It's a great hobbiest tool and that's about it.
Photoshop has tools galore, overkill in my opinion, as is the price and the training/support cause the user to develop work flows that are awful causing many and I mean many issues. Worst of all is the fact that it started out as a professional level photographer/color correction pre-press tool that due to Adobe developing an image display that caters to the hobbiest now we see serious issues with oversharpening and therefore ruining of the image causing mories in the output. Photoshop in the hands of the skilled user is a great tool, unfortunately skilled users are very rare and problems abound, it's too bad but Photoshop has really gone to the hobbiest in the last 5 years..
Corel Photo-PAINT certainly does not have the tool set of PS, however it supports N color space transparency, spot color support and quite frankly the absolute best display in the industry. Yes this display requires a user to understand what they are seeing but you don't get oversharpened images from Photo-PAINT unless you really work at it.
Color correction in Photo-PAINT is just awsome and when teamed with Corel Aftershot Pro I'm as happy as one can be. Quite frankly the tool set is more that adaquate for large/grand format and press printing. Color management is second to none and in my opinion better than Adobe, specifically the ease of use and LAB color model soft proofing. I use it for sign work, press work and everything else only using the others to open their native file formats or to use a filter that Photo-PAINT does not have, returning the file to Corel Photo-PAINT for final processing.
