    I have a few videos that I'd like to edit in either Final Cut Pro or in Adobe After Effect but since those two programs don't support .MKV files, I'm trying to get them converted. So far I've looked around and found a few paid programs that were recommended but I'm not trying to spend any money...

They're things like textures that the software accesses infrequently, but which...

    Adobe & Automatic Startups

    I -- ill-advisedly -- signed up to "lease" Adobe Photoshop a few months ago. I rarely use it, but when I do, I use it a lot. But that's not pertinent. Here's the problem: I only have 8 gigs, and Adobe now uses most of that every time I boot the computer up. About half of them can be force...
