Maybe this.[^] Doesn't make much sense, maybe he meant a self-built pc.

PS is great ( How can you not like it?), and you can find the old versions for acceptable money. No need to run for CS7 right away. Graphic designers love Mac, because they love design. I am not sure if there is a real difference between PS on Mac and PS on PC.

The price tag? CS6 is £631.20 on Amazon[^] Plus it is good - but for what I do PaintShop Pro is fine.

I plan to purchase a new desktop pc for graphic designer staff. I have two question that I need the answer in order to make a consideration before I decide to proceed: 1. For a graphic designer pc, which hardware component that is important? (vga card, RAM or CPU). What is the minimum spec of these hardware? 2. Between the brand new pc and clone pc, which one should I choose? Thank, Kanel
Ram, graphic card, Ram, graphic card ... - Software : Photoshop and/or Illustrator depending on the type of graphic design you want to do. - RAM : to be able to work with large(r) files with lot of layers. 16+ gig . - Graphic card : most plug-ins now use the GPU instead of the CPU to render the effects. - Harddrive : FAST. to be able to load and use the disk cache.

Purchasing a higher end workstation from HP, Dell or (gulp...) Apple is what I personally would do. They generally have been tested for compatability and performance and in most cases if something goes wrong they will replace the machine or component. Above all, for graphics, a calibrated professional grade monitor is very important. Make sure you have card readers for most types of portable media. For software, Adobe is the industry standard, I also use Paint Shop Pro for my use and have never had any compatability issues with the print houses.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Just make sure that the monitor case is black. These designer types always want powder blue, pink, or whatever (because it looks so luvly, sitting there on the desk!), but the human eye sees colours clearer if they're surrounded by a black border.

You can choose any CPU, get at least 8 GB RAM. but most important is the graphics card, get the certified graphics card for your application. i.e. nVidia Quadro[^]. Most well known application supports GPU acceleration[^]. I have nVidia Quadro graphics card, they have specially prepared drivers that support many applications, even Visual Studio is in the list.

Ah Yes, you are right, a calibrated monitor is essential for photo and prints.
