The model of your coprocessor
The disk operating system used
The amount of installed RAM
The capacity of your hard drive
The presence or absence of add-ons or devices necessary to run the software, such as a sound card, CD-ROM drive, or math coprocessor
The type of graphics card currently installed
The type of monitor you’re using (whether black and white, grayscale, color, or true color)

Before you purchase any software, you’ll naturally want to make sure that it’s compatible with your system. Most graphics programs are available in both IBM and Macintosh versions, but some are designed for only one of these platforms. If you have an IBM-compatible system, a program designed to run on a Macintosh computer won’t run on your system.

To learn more, it’s important to read magazine reviews (or product reviews found on the Internet) about the software packages you’re considering. Make sure you’re getting the right version for your system. You also want to be sure that the graphics program you choose is compatible with your desktop program. Files that are incompatible, no matter how nice, are useless if you can’t import them into your documents. Since computer graphics files are usually very large, it’s also a good idea to find out how much hard-disk space the program will use up—and how much reserve storage space you’ll need for the files you create.
