I'd like to file a bug report: running Photoshop and using my wacom tablet, the lines are somewhat twitchy. On the other hand, it's responsive as hell: how nice to upgrade to a Quadra running inside Electron inside Mojave inside a pretty gnarly iMac Pro :)

I wish my old Performa 575 booted that fast or ran Photoshop 3 that well. I am old enough that I started with Photoshop 3 on such a machine, so this really was a trip for me. How utterly cool.

Now if I could run Photoshop 3 natively on THIS box… hoo boy would that be responsive.



I was a Macromedia fanboy. Photoshop is still a second class citizen in my mind to Fireworks. Even though Adobe felt different and nuked their best editor I still run it.


Amen! I ran my entire first business from Fireworks. Damn was it excellent. I hated what Adobe did to Macromedia’s products after they bought them.


In the mid 2000s I spent years converting bitmap mockups into html table designs using Fireworks (using the slice->export workflow). My managers were perpetually in awe of how much faster I churned out the work when compared with the Photoshop wizards we had in the house.

Really miss Fireworks.


Yikes! I started with Digital Darkroom which I think was a Photoshop precursor.
