I know my HP can handle Serif Draw -- used it plenty but now I
need my HP to handle Paint Shop Pro (smiling here).  Serif Draw
is a nice program but it will not do all the things I require.

I AM doing a 70 graphic job right now (yes I am being paid to
do it) and ended up needing PSP Version 8 which I just got.

To complete the job to my satisfaction (us artist types are a
bit picky) -- I needed more blending effects.

But what I want to do is paint 16 X 20 inch paintings I can
sell on the Internet eventually and why I want to know if I can
upgrade my HP.
