I have a desktop running Vista x64 and Lightroom 2, and a new Macbook with a trial version of LR3 on it. Obviously, I want to use the Macbook on the move, and do the bulk of my work on the PC. Is there a way I can do this?
Obviously one option is to upgrade the PC to LR3. The main reason I don't want to do this is that in about 6 months time I'll probably be switching to a mac, so don't want to waste money on windows software. I know any edits I do in LR3 on the Macbook won't carry, but I can obviously export the finished JPEGs back to the PC. Does anyone know for sure whether the original RAW files will remain untouched by LR3, so I can use them in LR2 should I need to? Or is it safer to make a copy before playing in LR3?
