It's a long story, but I don't read small print so well. So I use a CRT monitor with my desktop computer and run it at 800x600. (When I try to do that with an LCD monitor, it looks like shit. Something about a digital display needing to run at it's native resolution. Adjusting DPI helps, but then things don't always fit.
Anyway, the color, temperature, contrast, etc. on the CRT I keep a good ways away from normal, on purpose, because it's easier to read that way, so I definitely don't want to edit with it.
But I have a little two-year-old Toshiba laptop that I use occasionally, and of course it has a pretty normal LCD screen. But, it uses a Celeron 1500 processor and has 512M of RAM. I can easily add more RAM, but only to 1GB. But if I do that, could I reasonably use something like Photoscape to edit with? Or would it just be unbearably slow?
Yes, it would be unbearably slow.
