The 64bit versions should address memory a lot more efficiently
See I hate and love Adobe.
Adobe CS3 is 32-bit.
Mac's have been using 64-bit chips since 2003. And MacOS X Leopard is true 64-bit.
But yet CS4 will be 64-bit for Windows and not the Mac.
The reason is Apple shut down the Carbon 64 program (about time) and wanted people utilize the Carbon API, which is 64-bit and. Still, you mean after ALL THIS TIME, Adobe could not get its act together and write in Cocoa? The Yellow Box has been the core API in Rhapsody since 1997.
That's why I call Adobe LAZY. Because it was too 'difficult' to port to Yellow Box, they went with Carbon, but not before riding the Blue Box wave. I always said Apple's best and worst move was to allow direct access to Darwin by allowing the Carbonizing of applications... look at Adobe.
It's sad since Apple has been ahead of Microsoft where the OS is concerned.
The flip side however.. I think you need Vista 64 to run CS4 64, which most people don't have.
