Google is funding work to ensure the Windows version of Adobe Systems' Photoshop and other Creative Suite software can run on Linux computers. "We hired CodeWeavers to make Photoshop CS and CS2 work better under Wine," Dan Kegel, of Google's software engineering team and the Wine 1.0 release manager, said on Google's open-source blog. "Photoshop is one of those applications that desktop Linux users are constantly clamoring for, and we're happy to say they work pretty well now... We look forward to further improvements in this area."

Parties are one of the places where DSLRs are most useful. Mostly because they can shoot in low-light : a typical party is indoor, with relatively low light, so the capability of DSLRs to produce noise free pictures are up to ISO800 or even ISO1600 is paramount. Also DSLRs can be fitted with wide-angle, low minimum aperture ratio primes. You like wide-angle because in a party you're among the people you shoot and you don't want to have to backup too much to get your frame. You like the low minimum aperture ratio for the same low light reason.
