I use Photoshop, InDesign and Illustrator all day long in rotation. When I tried a mac mini, its way of handling memory shortrun was to quietly let the applications not in use crash in the background. This was inconvenient, but at least honest. You knew what to expect consistently.
Now, with a dual processor G5/Intel core, I find memory issues making themselves known in very random ways. A window will freeze open and stay up, on an application that shows up as closed when you check the dock or the force quit dialog box. And application menu bars, across the top of the monitor, disappear even when you can keep using the other tool palettes.
Some I talk to say it's an Adobe issue, which I can believe, as it mainly happens with their programs. But Apple's Preview image viewer, that comes packed with every mac, crashes this weird way too. I would call it a half-crash. I always have to restart to make these windows close, and application menu bar return.
Anyone else have these probs?
