My brother tested Adobe Photoshop CS3 (or was that CS4?) in VirtualBox
with a Core 2 Duo E8400, 2 GB RAM (of which 1,5 GB allocated to the
virtual machine) and some capable nVidia card (with the proprietary
driver). He was quite impressed (no significant overhead added) and
the conclusion was that with more RAM even the host system would be
usable at the same time. Other than that I subscribe to Allan's
recommendation. Did you consider completely replacing the setup with
(Debian) GNU/Linux? There are some POS softwares and most of them also
run under Windows. Also, Photoshop and Pagemaker might be replaceable
by Gimp and Inkscape. Kind regards, Andrei
Someone who has already bought and paid for Photoshop would be a fool to
scrap it for anything else, so long as it runs!
