Hi Walter. I enjoyed reading your Mac Pro alternatives Thread. It seems to be the topic of the hour.

That is an option Oliver, but my 5 year old MP has seen better days. And Im not drinking the Apple Kool-Aid anymore. Running CS6 on the PC will suite my needs just fine 😉

It was addressed in the beta testing of CS6 that I was a participant in.
Yes, HP didnt allow me to configure the Nvidia Maximus setup using the Quadro 4000 and the Tesla 2075 which is one of the reasons I looked else where.

Im glad you enjoyed the article!

Well it might have been a bug but it was fixed months ago. I guess it just sounded similar.

If you call Adobe Tech Support ask to be escalated and get Vinay to help. He is a very smart, helpful guy.

Yes, I experienced this.Don’t know what causes it, but I can tell you what fixed it for me.

I opened a New project in PrP. Then saved it and closed PrP. When I started up PrP again I was able to open the older existing project that wouldn’t open before.

I just upload 2 HD music video type projects recently. They looked great on YT. I exported from Premiere at full HD resolution to a mastering format (DNxHD) to archive. Then I just uploaded the file and let YT do the conversion. It takes a bit longer. But when it plays back at 1080P, full screen in YT, it looks wonderful.

Keith, I am in exactly the same position as you. With almost the identical system. In the next few days the Creative Cow will be posting an article I wrote exploring this state of affairs many of us find ourselves in. It talks about the decisions and research I did with the goal of maximizing my use of CS6. Keep your eyes open for it. Its called “Hello PC, my old friend”.

Jim,I am tired of your angry paranoid tirades. You seem to be a very unhappy person looking to lash out and take out your frustration with the state of the Mac on those that surround you. This emotion even seems evident in your scowling avatar.Here is some advice, take some anger management courses or get some therapy. As you read some other folks responses to your rants, its obvious no one really interested in being subjected to this constant venting. You are an embarrassment to the reasonable, emotionally stable Mac owners of the world. Here’s a new emoticon for your 😛

PS I will not waste my time responding to anymore personal attacks
or delusional insults.
