what versions of Photoshop can be run on this machine? I have older versions
Dear Dsherer;
I've seen a few examples of clients putting in Photoshop software up to 5 to 6 years old---and it worked. But once you get to 8 to 10 years old, that is pushing it. Today's Windows 10 is a different beast, and it doesn't match the likes of Windows 7 or Windows Vista. Those products would virtually run anything. Anything. But Windows 10 is particular with most software. Remember the American Greeting Card program (one of the most popular of all time)? Even that one struggles to install and function right. No surprise.
Best of luck,
Consultant Brian

Let’s say that I put the Disk into my Windows XP pc, and restart my computer. Would it upgrade to Windows 10?
Dear Someguy;
Probably not. Windows XP is too far back, but if it were a Windows 7 machine, that would work. Sorry. Too many generations behind.

Dell - S2318HN 23" IPS LED FHD Monitor - Black
See stunning images in Full HD with this 23-inch Dell LED monitor. Its ultrathin bezel and IPS panel with a 178-degree viewing angle lets you work without missing any details on the screen. This TUV-certified Dell LED monitor helps prevent eyestrain from long hours of browsing thanks to its ComfortView feature.
Can these monitors be hooked to each other then to my DELL PC so I have 2 monitors using a HDMI cord? Sarah
Dear Sarah;
You need to plug them from a tower that has either a VGA or HDMI connection. You could have a tower that has two HDMI connectors; that would work, too. But plugging the monitors to each other is a NO GO. They are not meant to be connected together, but rather connected to a source, like a tower or a laptop. Good question, though.

Best Buy's specifications for this monitor say that it has integrated speakers, but I cannot get them to work. I specifically ordered this monitor for the speakers. If it has none it goes back tomorrow. Other than the speaker issue, I love it.
Dear Tom;
I'm sure by the time you read this note, you returned it. You got it right. I have yet to see anyone using this model with a speaker wire. Other than this one feature not being available, it's a great monitor. Top 5 for 2018. Crisp and sharp. You cannot get any better than this type. I'm sure others in the future will be spectacular, but for now, this is the one to own.
