During his keynote speech at the Worldwide Partner Conference, Steve Ballmer has dismissed Google's announcement of Chrome OS. "There's good data that says 50 percent of the time that someone's on their PC, they're not doing something with the Web browser," Ballmer said, suggesting that an ideal operating system would provide both rich online and offline integration. It is not sure yet what Chrome OS will exactly offer.

She uses PHOTOSHOP to resize her photos??!!
So...does she have Photoshop permanently swapped to disk, "ready" to load in 40 sec. every time she needs to crop a photo?
I am not about to comment on the quality of PS as an image manipulation tool - it's still without competition for those who know how to navigate it (and don't know how to code), but - owning the entire Adobe portfolio of software on my wonderful 2009 quad-core workstations with their 10K rpm drives and whatnot - I STILL would never EVER consider challenging my patience with starting up PS for a mere crop.
ImageMagick + a custom script for previewing selections and magnetizing to borders will do this is 3 seconds, by which time PS is still busy drawing its splash screen...
