The RAM question poses an interesting problem. I procured CS3 on the cusp of CS4 being released. By the way, don’t plan on buying a 64 bit machine/OS and expect to use CS3 – is flat out will not work. But to the opinion I am seeking: If 6G is minimum, and more is better, and CS3 only will work on 32 bit OS that can see no more than 3G, what is your opinion. “Expect reasonable performance on Vista 32bit (3G RAM) with Premier Pro CS3 (for a novice mind you)” or “Don’t bother even learning on CS3, since it cannot install on a 64bit system and will never be able to see more than 3G of RAM”. Since I am on the verge of investing significant time into a learning curve, I am grateful for all opinions on the usabtility of CS3 and would like to avoid the investment in CS4 and a new system for some time. Thanks.
