Hi all, this is for a friend so please bear with me.
I'm trying to find out if her Mac will be able to handle CS5 or CS6 and process up to 6,000 RAW files a month. (that's what she told me)
It is an iMac Core 2 Duo
2GB ram (4GB max)
320GB HD
Thanks! |

Thanks Patrick. I'm aware that this machine can run Photoshop, but will it be able to handle tons of raw files? |

Without seeming glib!
It does depend upon what the intended use is. RAW indicates a certain photographic bent, and I like most would recommend only shoot in RAW (If you can afford it);.
Your spec machine is low on RAM even for a MAC ( I use the terrm 'your').
It's the equivalent of me running a dual processor Windows machine.
All that matters is the work
