Elements 5, 6, or 7: Which version should I get and what are the pros and cons for getting a 5 vs a 6 or a 5 vs a 7?

Avoid Elements 5 if you have Vista. It claims to be compatible, but after a few months on my new Vista-loaded PC, Elements 5 decided it didn't care for it and stopped opening Editor. I called Photopshop support, where a representative told me they no longer support Elements 5, but there was a patch available to make it more agreeable to Vista. So I patched, rebooted and there it was in all its former glory. Until the next time. Again, that nasty little window popped up telling me essentially that my PC had no idea what I was asking it to do. Oh, and by the way, it now no longer knew what the Organizer was. I wound up downloading a free trial of Elements 7, which seems to work OK, but I'm still ticked off equally at Photoshop and Windows Vista. Cottage cheese seems to have a longer shelf life that most software packages these days. Excuse me while I go kick the dog.

Don't be sad, I actually prefer the 5.5 generation over the classic. I ended up keeping mine instead of getting a classic. Its much zippier in navigating, especially if you have a lot of videos and the click wheel works much smoother. All in all the 5.5 generation is my favorite thus far.

I have never used version 7 so am not aware of exactly what the issue is. I have not had any issues with the appearance of lettering in Elements 10. Besides, the newer features of v9, v10, etc. make upgrading worthwhile, I suggest.

If you are just using simple software programs like google chrome, surfing in the web, word, excel etc. I recommend you the I5 but if at any moment you would want to use other heavier product or software you would need the I7, if the cost is the same in I5 & I7 i would prefer buying the I7, is a better processor, more speed, but less ram, remember that the only thing that ram's affect your computer is the number of processes that can be handle at the same time so, I think the I7 would be better :)

10bII+ has more equation functions than the standard 10bII. If you are going to use it for a basic fiance class you will be fine with either, but I think they are they same price so you will just get more with 10bII+, also rumor has it that the 10bII+ runs a bit faster, however that is what my professor told me, as I didn't really get to compare that theory.

My husband has the 10.1 and I have the 8. They're both perfect for us. The 8 is lighter and more convenient for me to carry around. My husband preferred the larger screen size; since portability wasn't an issue for him. He doesn't have any issues with PDF's and notes. Features he uses very often for his technical books. We both had the ASUS Transformer & Prime previously and both the 8 and 10.1 blow them away. My husband was reluctant to change, but now he's very happy he did.

Just remember though, this 900 is about 150 or 200 cheaper than the 901 with the atom. Kinda depends on what you want to use it for. Frankly, I ordered one instead of the 7 inch, because of the larger screen and more ram. I am not interested in xp. I'm getting it for size, speed, and cloud computing. Also note, they have now changed the description to Intel Mobile. The atom was obviously a mistake on their part.

It doesn't really matter. I'd go with the 8. I've using these for 13 years. They are the best and this is a really good price.

Good morning. You will need to buy the 6.5 only if it is damage otherwise you don't need to get one. Each burner is individual from each other. The burner woks great. 1/advice. Wait until you have the burner to take out the damage one, that is because of the wires, they do not ecpecifie where they go. Thanks

Get 6.5. It can always be cut down. Also make sure you get the right width.

In Elements, you will still be able to use all the features you mentions. What elements is lacking is stuff you or I would probably never use, like support from RAW formated photos and vector graphix, or a feature called image warp. CS2 is more for the proffesional user so most likely theres not much of anything you will miss by switching to elements.

I have the 0.7, and absolutely yes. I've written multiple essays and exams with it. The 0.5 and the 0.7 are the same on the outside, only difference is the lead.

HG is the 7.6:1. I prefer the non-HG for all around fishing. In fact, I never use the HG at all.

I bought the one for a 10 in. It works great for mine so if you're getting the one for a 7 you should be fine.

Just do it:) there is nothing wrong or horribly different between 8 and 8.1. But it's also about safety. Things that were issues with 8 are fixed in 8.1. and as far as visible changes: for normal PC user they give a little more "normal" desktop experience, you can customize your tiles in more shapes and you can get the start button back. That's it. The major changes. It's just an update. Nothing bad or crazy good.

I agree with delamber, it's okay for the 4 but not the best choice for the 5 or 6
