Have just started to use Capture 1 LE as a comparison to Adobe Camera Raw within CS2. Initial thoughts are that it makes a better job of processing. However I find that once I have modified the RAW file, it seems to overwrite the original RAW settings so when I re-look at the thumbnail it is a modified RAW. Is this normal for Capture 1, or is there a button or function that I should have checked?

You can download trial versions of both C1LE and C1v4.

I've never had performance problems with C1LE but v4 runs like a pig on my machine (AMD3500, 2GB RAM) to the extent that the music players stutters when I process image files.

I find v4 to be quicker creating the thumbs, processing and closing than 3.7, but does seem to use a lot of resource. My machine isn't as happy running it alongside PS CS2 as it was with 3.7.

I quite like the interface but miss the facility to automatically write the processed images to a subfolder under the source image folder. I keep forgetting to change the target and then have to go hunting for the files.

Find the LE version slower that CS, and thats with 2 GB of RAM.

One other question: Is it possible to prevent the Capture 1 Media Reader loading at start-up, sitting in the desktop tray (bottom right of screen)?

Thanks Justin. I have been able to do that, and it still loads next time the machine is booted. I just wanted to turn if off, so it didn't load into the system tray in the first place.
