jeremy_center Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 I have a relatively new Celeron M based laptop (w/1 GB RAM) and have recently acquired CS2. I was wondering if I should even considering installing CS2 on the laptop. JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffrey_douglas Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Since you already have both, why not just try it out and let us know how it works. What do you have to lose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanel_peets Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 it will work fine. I have Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook S6120. Pentium-M 1.4 and 512MB RAM, and it works very well on my laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remco-jan.woldhuis Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 I have an HP NC8000 with a 1.5 GHz mobile pentium CPU and 512MB RAM and CS2 is very slow. CS performs well, but CS2 is not workable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtk Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 1G is plenty. Celeron is the least of Intel's chips, not equal to Pentium, but should not be a problem. That it's a laptop isn't a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arimus Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 With Photoshop CS its more important to have alot of memory rather than alot of raw grunt power in the CPU... which with your laptop having 1GB of you've got enough to mitigate the lower CPU grunt power.

phil64 Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Hi, I'm running an Athlon 3000+ with 1Gb memory and CS2 works fine. Under the preference settings in CS2, set the memory requirement to 75 - 80%, I find that this makes Photoshop work a little quicker. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freehueco Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 I only have 512 MB of RAM on my PowerBook (1.5Ghz G4), and it runs CS2 just fine. I don't edit any pictures beyond about 50mb though. You might bog the system down with the 16 bit drum scans of your 4x5 transparencies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
