Ang. RE: Working in Linear Space in XSI

[Demian Zarins <demian.zarins(at)svt.se>]

If anyone has missed it, here is a way
to set  the RAM higher than 2GB for
Aftereffects (for 32bit winXP).

I think that Adobe blogger agrees with you 
about 64-bit, he's just saying that 
they're not shipping it yet, and here
are technical reasons why it's not so bad.  

He also says (in the comment section) that if you have a 
64-bit OS with more than 4 gig of RAM Photoshop 
CS2 detects this and lets the OS do the disk caching,
giving a small performance boost. So Photoshop 
will use 2 gig of RAM on your 64-bit OS 
setup + the OS will be using the rest for the 
disk caching.
