Cool, simple and effective plug-in to PS

Thank you very much for your advice. When I switch to Windows I'll take a long hard look at it.

Switch to windows????



Uhm... how are you using DPP? Either on a mac or windows, right? Why switch to windows? The mentioned software is available for mac os x, you know.

I'm on Linux. I use DPP via XP mounted on VirtualBox. It works but not so well. That's why I think about switching to Windows 7. As you could probably understand, I really like DPP.... <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Big Grin' />

Windows 7 does work very, very well for me, since the betas already. I am currently running 64-bit 7, and I haven't looked back since. I have been using Windows since Windows 386, and 7 is the most stable version there ever was, for me anyway, even better than XP.



The only thing that is a minor point, is that some older hardware (e.g. old printers and scanners) may not work with it, as there may not be any drivers for it.

Thanks for the warning but it's O.K. I have no old HW.

I don't know if it will work ... but rather than letting the XP run in VirtualBox, you could try "Wine".

I cannot tell if DPP will run under wine ... but if it does, it will be considerably faster than

within the VirtualBox.

I tried WINE. It works well with DPP3.1 but I have a 7D and it does not work with DPP3.8.

Just recently (16. July) a new version (1.2) was released ... it might be worth a retry.

Now that I know it exists, of course it is. <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Big Grin' /> Thank you.
