It will be announced in August, maybe even July 28, but the Athlon 64 will not ship before the fall. The first G5's will beat it and will probably be the first part of August.

An early prototype of an Athlon 64 was shown a few weeks ago at a gamers convention and it still has a way to go. Take a look at tomshardware.com

That was the MOBILE Athlon 64, demonstrated in a working laptop. The desktop version was shown some time ago.

[Edit] the desktop version was shown around Feb 2002. Both the desktop and mobile versions are expected to ship this year.

Of course they are suposed to ship "any time now." Could be kind of like how they say Fusion power technology is just a few years off. Only problem is it has been for decades.

If Adobe care about the Mac platform, they will release PhotoShop for the Mac first since the majority of (legal) users are on the Mac. Last time a look it was 70% Mac. Although if you take into acount illegal copies then more people use PhotoShop on the PC than there are Macs on the planet. I hope this means there will be a new version of PhotoShop Elements that is 64bit aware.

I'd be damned if I was caught with a legal copy of Photoshop or anything else on my Windows peecee. It doesn't deserve it.
 
Question for anyone who knows

Can Photoshop do multitasking? i.e. can you be filtering (like gaussian blur on one large image), while moving objects on another... does it use sheets? ect.
 
I was considering getting PS 7 .. and I'm actually close to the purchase .. but does this mean wait for PS 8? How much longer until it comes out? I will reiterate a question posted earlier: when is the expected release date?
 
Sooo...will PS8 have any optimization for 64bits or no? Or is that what the G5 plugin is? The G5 won't be able to take full advantage of its "64bitness" until Panther comes out anyway, right? So the hardware race with AMD is a little irrelevant given how close they may release to each other. What is relevant is the fact that Windoze is NOT ready for the Big 64bit Game (Moooo, cow...MOOOOOOOO...)

Panther IS ready.

Let the games begin!

Windows isn't? Really? Have you seen 64bit Windows 2000? 64bit Windows XP? 64bit Windows Server 2003? 🙄

Has anyone else here gotten spam offering Photoshop 7 full release for $49? I get these all the time, and because I'm still using PS5, I'm tempted to get it. It just doesn't seem like It could be possible, and I'm worried it's a scam. Anyone?

Yes, in fact, Windows is my primary development workstation, along with Linux--dual booting on my Athlon, doing various projects. I've yet to get a modern Mac, but planning on a nice PowerBook soon, hopefully.

Microsoft isn't just ready for 64 bit, they are ALREADY doing 64 bit.
 
As a casual user of PS, I don't know if there's enough there for me to upgrade right away. I did upgrade to PS7 immediately so I could use it in osx and because some of the new features. Maybe if it is really faster that will prompt me to make my purchase faster.

This is slightly off topic, but Adobe is not going to release a Mac version of the next Premier Pro release; it will be WinDoze only. The same goes for a new audio editing app called Audition. It appears that Adobe is only going to support the Mac in areas where there is no direct competition from Apple apps.

1. Premiere sucked even before Final Cut Pro came out

2. Audition is most likely based on Adobes aquisition of Syntriullium Software which was PC only anywas.

Photoshop 8 sounds interesting but isn't it a little odd that Adobe is moving to "8" and not "7.5". Lately their updates have been functional but seemingly small overall.
