JonnyM just looked and Adobe say LR3 will work on XP with SP3 installed. LR4 will not.
The link I gave above shows a video of Content-Aware healing - I don't know if it's a cut-down version of what CS5 gives, but it's definitely there (from PSE9).

I'll take your word about Puppet Warp - I've no idea what that is.

Otherwise, I'll stick with my problem about the ACR in PSE being severely cut down - disabled, even - in comparison with its big brother. Then there's the very limited capabilities with 16-bit images.

So, a question for CS5 users........... how much 16-bit editing can be done?
Everything except a few older filters? Layers?

(There's a school of thought that says that 16-bit editing is irrelevant if a print is the final goal....... because even the newest printers still only work in 8-bit....... makes you wonder, really - we can usually get 12 to 14-bit Raw images and we want to make the best of them, so a 16-bit Tiff will give best quality - but it seems pointless unless only using very high quality - and very expensive - commercial printing).
