Fireworks and Photoshop CS2.

I don;t think we have a guide for editing covers.. It's really a thing of practice and a good eye for detail

use a template for covers, it takes a lot of the annoying work out

Same programs, the lead sku for Photoshop is actually the mac version so it runs a bit smoother on mac. Personally I use Photoshop on a windows vista pc.
