I shoot RAW + JPG for a couple of reasons: 1)I can quickly go through the files on my windows machine & decide which ones I want to keep and which ones I simply can't save, and 2) the JPG has all my EXIF info, whereas once I'm done processing my RAW photo, I have nothing. Not all my RAW photos get the same processing, and I'm kinda stuck using the stuff I have on hand (although I'm about to shell out the money for the mac mini-DVI converter so I can hook up my macbook to my big monitor & see about using GIMP to do processing ... still doesn't solve the EXIF problem, though; that I still have to add in post-processing with EXIFER). I pretty much have to buy a new computer before I can upgrade from PS7.

All my computer stuff is pretty ancient My Mac's still running Tiger, and my PC is a Celeron :\ "New Computer" is actually on my list before "New Lens"
