Even on my iMac 600 it's pretty swift and smooth. There's no official Adobe press release yet, but there's a VersionTracker page for it, and that makes it official enough for me."

    It would be really nice if people would learn, that most of the OS X commerical apps, DO NOT TOUCH the bsd layer, nor require it to work.

    Photoshop for OS X, is Photoshop written for the OS X gui, namely Cocoa. It is not a 'bsd app'.

    As far as OS X being a BSD based system, perhaps you should go read a little bit more before you claim it's BSD based. It isn't. The kernel is mach, with Cocoa, Carbon and BSD running on top of it as a seperate layer.

    If OS X were BSD based, you wouldn't be able to unselect the BSD enviroment during the install =)
