What made my decision easier was that Adobe’s Photoshop Beta was spectacularly fast.

With Apple ready to switch to its silicon, I decided it was time to sell those machines. My models were packed with memory and top-of-the-line graphic processors, and as a result, I could breeze through my photo edits. Photoshop was the solitary reason I owned an iMac Pro and a MacBook Pro. It gives me much better (and granular) control over my edits. I like the layer-based approach to editing photos. It didn’t have the bells and whistles of its desktop-based big brother - and since I didn’t need them, I don’t miss them. It offered easy access to all my digital negatives and edited files anywhere, anytime. I was an early convert to the cloud variant of the Adobe Lightroom photo library tool.

And one of those applications from the past I absolutely can’t live without is Adobe’s Photoshop.īarring minor adjustments to fix the vagaries of the lenses, I don’t use Lightroom. It will be a huge boost for desktop computing, which remains stuck in the past when it comes to applications. And most importantly, it has excellent battery life. From the day I first laid eyes on the M1-based Apple’s MacBook Pro, I have been a massive fan of the machine.
