# yeah, it's a bit on the large size
but it was either that or make the text super tiny and that would have been rubbish :(

EDIT : And I've now learned that Photoshop does NOT like 130KB of raw text slapped into it in one layer :o . It took about 20 minutes to change the colour on each of the 5 shades (that's on a Core2Duo 3.2GHz CPU with 4GB RAM, running Vista 64-bit)

# I've had one genuine non-hardware related crash
in 11 months

XP? Good luck ;)

Honestly, the 64-bit version of Vista (at least, as far as my PC is concerned) has been almost faultless. One crash in 11 months is good going and that has included all the photoshop work, all my Premiere Elements video editing (working on 30GB files) and games playing :)

No, I don't work for Microsoft ;)

# I've run PC's for years, they are generally each to their own, they either are reliable or aren't
which suited me for years, given the ones i've owned have worked reliably without fucking up for years; but Vista was the fucking limit; my computer man simply said nah when I said IT IS TIME TO REPLACE STUFF; and drove me to a Mac store instead, and to be honest, even at work the IT manager isn't replacing XP with this Vista, it's simply slower on non-high end PCs

And Mac's are wonderful beasts, never going back
