- In addition to the suggestion elsewhere about Aldus PhotoStyler, there is also
- a program available called Micrografx Picture Publisher. I've been using
- this for about 2 months and it seems as full-featured as anything out there.
- It will run at acceptable speed on my 386-40 and savvies Photo CD through
- your CD-ROM driver, if you have one that's either single-session or multi-
- session Photo CD capable. It's worth a look, if you have Windows, and is
- much more capable than the packaging would suggest.
-
- One other note: when I did my comparison shopping on this and PhotoStyler,
- I noticed that there was a higher-than-normal variation between retail and
- street price on both. Some vigilance should pay off handsomely.

- Ciao ...
