Shame on you, Adobe

I'm amazed. It's been one and a half years since the release of CS3, you'd think they've had enough time to rename a couple of directories, right? Wrong. CS4 still won't install on case-sensitive file systems. Who in their right minds would willingly use a case-insensitive file system on UNIX? How hard is it to type AdobeJP2K.framework instead of adobejp2k.framework when setting the output directory? Either everyone at Adobe uses a broken keyboard with dysfunctional Shift keys, or everyone has a broken hand with dysfunctional pinkies.

Of course this can be worked around, but not without a substantial amount of tweaking. And I'm willing to bet that most people who use Photoshop for a living can't be bothered to figure out what to do. After all, I've seen quite a few threads complaining CS3 won't install on a case-sensitive file system. And getting it installed is the easy part...

PC upgrade in progress

I was too lazy to take pictures, you can find them on net1999's website.

So he's all done and happily running at 3.2GHz. Mine isn't as stable as his for some reason, even though we're using the exact same parts. Oh well.

Still need to get an ARC-1230 and a bunch of hard drives, then my upgrade will be complete. (And my wallet will be empty...)

RAM prices going up

Seems everyone's getting a Conroe and some DDR2 RAM to go with it, so shops are jacking up prices and reaping a big profit off us. Lucky I got mine (and net1999's) before this rush.

Now we just need the Stacker, then we can put all these stuff together.

Windows Live Messenger buggy?

やっと入手した。net1999様のC320BEE+DM600にはまだ及ばないけど、まあ、貧乏だからしょうがないね。
