Hi everyone I'm another migrant from EV. I am temporarily out of commission as I had a computer crash and lost both of my electronic files of PSE & LR. I removed the hard drive and sent it to my daughter via snail mail for possible recovery. I should get a return USB within a couple of weeks if she can recover the data. I'll then use it as a Plug and Play mode until a better option comes along.
I have a good friend (very computer savy) who convinced me to convert over to a Linux 17.1 operating system. I have that in place now on a new computer, gifted by another daughter, and am in the middle of learning to navigate around in a different environment. I believe I will really like it. The big plus for me with this OS is no Adware, Malware, registry errors,virus' etc and all software is free , well at least 99.9% of it and there are currently 70,000 plus packages available for use. You would of course not down load all and probably a high % would not work with your current hardware but it is an interesting venture and I'm sure there are thousands of convert's daily.
I did get out yesterday and take a few shots of some little spring flower's, knotholes in the fence and a couple of mockingbird shots in my yard. They looked good in the view finder but terrible on the computer. I deleted all but one excdept one shot of a past due Dandelion. It is supposed to be sunny today so I'll try again. I need to build up a supply of images to work on if and when I get back in the business. I'm just a player not a real serious one either but I do enjoy photo editing. If I were a good photographer I would not need LR and PSE would I. ,,,,smile,,,, have a good day ,the Old Man is headed to his big chair with a fresh cup of coffee and then probably a short nap it's only 3:45AM.
