not really true.
the new version of Gem can use a number of ways to load an image, among
those are ImageMagick (which crashes on w7), QuickTime (for which you
need QuickTime installed) or the traditional libJPEG/libTIFF based methods.

the trick is, that the image loading functionality is now found in
pugins (thus if imageMAGICK crashes, you can simply remove the
imageMAGICK plugin to avoid those crashes).
however, in order to load any image, you will need at least one
gem_image*.dll plugin.
you might want to install the imageTIFF, imageJPEG, imageSGI and/or
imageQT plugins, depending on which filse you want to read.
