Oh look, there you are runnin at the mouth again. How many more lame
excuses do you think you can come up with? You're a fuckin poser,
plain and simple.

How very limiting of you.

....uh, what do mean "pc based"? That doesn't even make sense. Both
the Mac and a PC can do the same job, the point is that with a PC you
have a wider range of option as far as upgradability, style and
program compatibility...oh and scalability, even the best Mac based
super clusters can't even fucking DREAM of contending against the
level of scalability you can get out of PC based super clusters
running *nix variants.
Like I said though, yer just some stupid Mac trendy, like a lot of
wannabe print/graphic artists these days. You don't understand the
technology and you just ASSume that it's better in some way cause all
the other sheeple are using it.

Uh why don't you tell me, Doofy, seeing as how you seem to think there
IS some difference between the two.

*shakes head*
See, yer no print artist. You might THINK yer a print artist, but yer
not. If you WERE a print artist you would understand that dpi is a
rather meaningless number. All that REALLY matters is the ACTUAL
pixel sizes, in this case 325x474. Now, given the ACTUAL pixel size
you can print in WHATEVER dpi you like, if you CHOSE to go with 72 it
would print out at 4.5 x 6.5 inches. But then you could go with a
fairly good print quality of 150 dpi in which case yer lookin at
around 2 x 3 inches on the print (which if I was going to do a print,
that's probably the size I'd want it in, like for a magazine article
or something). Of course ultimately in printing the most important
factor is paper, if you're using say HP color laser glossy photo paper
it'll look pretty damn good even if yer printing at 72 dpi.
>What is the red stuff on his face?
Take a guess, kiddo. Your answer will accurately express your level
of comprehension and reasoning ability.

I'm sure not ALL the cats get adopted...and just think, maybe some of
the ones they wind up killing because they couldn't find them homes
COULD have been adopted...if only your skill in website design had
been a lil better. Better looking websites will generate a higher
level of traffic.

Again, you call it work. Tell me though...what are you defined by?
The selfish little fucked up brats that you spawned to replace
yourself with? LOL...maybe your pets, do they define you? For all
the "life" you think you have, all you ACTUALLY have is failing
redundancy, you're not doing anything that BILLIONS before you have
already done...and in most cases far better. Fact of the matter
is...you can't be defined, because you are not unique nor are you
accomplished in any measurable way.

two?
>I have to know all these programs for my freekin job, numnuts - jeeze.

.....okay so WHY are you using both of them? I mean I have both
Photoshop and PaintShopPro, but I have SPECIFIC reasons as to WHY I
use both of them. What are your SPECIFIC reasons for needing BOTH of
those programs?
