Multi- CPU's with Adobe products?
Can anyone verify if Premiere 6 can take advantage of multiple processor, and on whic platform? I think After Effects can..don't know about Illustrator or Photoshop.

Hi Jerry,
I've not seen it myself but a friend tells me that Premiere makes full use of his dual pIII's for encoding.

I run dual CPU with windows 2000.
IMHO its not cost effective to buy dual CPUs if looking for speedup of computing tasks like rendering -- I think the same $$ buys a faster single CPU system unless you just gotta have more speed than the fastest single CPU can deliver, then with dual fastest CPUs you might get 50-75% more speed for ~2X the CPU cost.
Where dual CPU wins and is IMHO worth it is if you do a lot of multitasking as I do. If you only run one application at a time, stick with single, faster CPU. For me its the improvement in multitasking and user interface responsiveness that make dual CPU worth the cost.
