Slightly OT: optimal PC for TCS2 / CS3 use

[Rene Stephenson]

Hi All,

We have PCs that at first blush look quite adequate to meet the system requirements spec'd by Adobe for TCS2: P4 (single core) 3.2GHz w/ 3GB RAM running WinXP. However...in reality, dealing with TCS2 and docs that are hundreds of pages long and chock full of graphics, there is significant wait time even just to page-down through the file, generate the book, make a PDF, etc... and there are frequent crashes and lock-ups. I think the minimal specs usually are intended for the most basic ability to run the given program at all. However, I don't find anywhere any recommendations for optimal performance. Does anyone have any...?
