And when you consider the type of owner (Who gives a toss they are only students landlord) are they ever going to upgrade to a normal system let alone nest. When you think about it…

The only way to get something that works like Photoshop..... I bet you can guess the answer! It's a bit like all those people who try to get a PC to run OSX. Just buy a damn Mac fo…
