Nikon Capture NX, first look
Capture NX is an evolutionary rather revolutionary product. Nikon Capture just prior to the release of NX was on it’s 4th revision as a raw converter. NX could have been just renamed to version 5, but by using the NX name Nikon made it clear that there was something new in this release. NIK Software co developed NX with Nikon, perhaps another reason for the name.

OT: Posts may be delayed due to My Wireless
MetroFi SideGuide: Always On IntrusionAs a result of my Free MetroFi connection has change the way they treat my connection with intrusive and always On tracking of my habits which I find offensive.
I have found that they are still letting people on with linux boxes without the need for the MSN Sidebar requirement.
So I am creating a dual-boot system with Ubuntu to work from.
I have the basic system installed and will be tweaking and customizing it over the rest of the week.

Thanks for all the postive feedback I have recieved so far.
