I posted this question a few months ago. Thanks to all that responded. I have the answer. I have a Dell, Windows 10, 4.00GB, 64 bit. I down loaded Lightroom 6. No problems, it does take several minutes to export photos. Not sure how long, I click on export, and then go to bed.

If you could expand the memory beyond 4GB, you could stay up and see the export 😀. Not sure if your computer will allow expansion, but aside from moving to SSD, expanding RAM is the most cost effective $ you could spend to increase performance for image processing.

Thanks, That's the same advice my son-in- law gave. Retired, not a problem, I'll see the export the next day. If I wake up! If I don't, still isn't a problem

Nice speakers. WOW. Although, I will not be ordering a single speaker, much less a pair.

Thank you - about as hard to make a living building high-end audio as being a photographer 😈 I am thinking about selling plans or kits though so you could build your own.
Cheers,

no electronic experience but I have a woodworking shop. Another vocation/hobby that doesn't pay well. I'm sure you would get more business with plans/kits.

Not hard to build if you have a shop. The drivers are expensive (doubled since I built the first set) but the real investment is the design, testing and the investment in test equipment - took years. PM me if you ever decide to build a pair, and I'll quote you a bargain (UHH) price on the plans.

OK Thanks. Nice talking to you. I am going to export images now; I'll see them in the morning.
