  • Rob Galbraith had an interesting article about Sports Illustrated's Workflow last year. It's a pretty interesting look at the kind of environment that Aperture might be used in. Clearly there is room to grow in this area, and I'll bet Apple has a…
  • See this interview with Joe Schorr, the Aperture product manager. Aperture is currently designed as a single user application. There is no server component, and I know CoreData is not designed for multi-user access as EOF was. I'm sure Aperture …
  • Quote: The OS resources going into making Raw a first-class citizen are enormous. As the OS evolves, our Raw support automatically evolves, too. When you get software updates, any given update can contain aw updates. So one morning Aperture suddenl…
  • Quote: Originally posted by kim kap sol Well...the SQL part is CoreData. ... I bet CoreData is the beginning of a 'versioning' system. I bet that 10.5 will bring some radical new way to use the computer. Programs that use CoreData will …
  • I don't mind so much that the hardware line-up needs to grow to meet Aperture's requirements. That's a price of bleeding edge technology. The hardware (including the laptops) will catch up. In the meantime, why limit those who can afford the speedy …
  • melgross, thank you for the report from the show. I can't wait to see Aperture in person myself. Did Apple have it running on any laptops? Any hint on how it might possibly run on intel laptops perhaps?
  • Quote: Originally posted by Tidelwav It's so hilarious to read people talking about Apple threatening Adobe's PS market. It is funny, but then again, where is Premiere on the Mac? I'm not saying it is going to happen. In fact I don't think i…
  • Quote: Originally posted by melgross To use this you would HAVE to use PS as well. Apple even more than hinted as much. Read the article on Maccentral. I don't think Aperture is a Photoshop killer, and I don't think Apple planned it as suc…
  • Quote: Originally posted by melgross Creating a lie vs. correcting images? What the hell does that kind of judgemental nonsense mean? Apple =good. Adobe=bad? I believe he is saying that Photoshop excels at photo illustration -- creating …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Tidris Obviously a worse Jobs decision was not doing this years ago. Like the Intel CEO said, what took them so long? Just imagine what Apple's current product line would be today if they had gone from Motorola directl…
  • Quote: Originally posted by drazztikka What about virus-vulnerability? Virii are generally exploits of vulnerabilities in software (e.g. Windows' architecture). Just as Linux on Intel has its own security strengths and weaknesses so will OS X…
  • Quote: Originally posted by D.J. Adequate One: It's going to kill sales of their computers for the next year. Would you buy a computer who's architecture will be dead in a year? Who the CEO says is so crippled it can't continue on in the future? …
  • How long have you had the new version? I was all set to get the new Intellimouse until I read the reviews on Amazon noting the problems with the left button. Have you experienced that at all? Thanks. Quote: Originally posted by Hodog16 I al…
  • I used to be a one-button defender. Then I tried a 5-button mouse. There is nothing like being able to invoke Expose with your thumb. It is sweet. I still have a 1-button at home, and it just isn't the same.
  • Quote: Originally posted by Eugene You're the first person to EVER say this. I mean EVER. The fact that NIkon cameras have two command dials (more if you include the vertical ones) in addition to the directional pad is obvious enough. The Cano…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Eugene 5) Nikon seems to put more thought into user interface, while Canon just crams features into its cameras. The first time I picked up a Nikon D-SLR, I found all the controls intuitive without having to read the …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Hobbes The two could complement each other well, but in some ways don't totally comfortably mix (e.g.would Exposé bring up windows from other desktops, or not?) Clearly the normal and sensible behavior would dicta…
  • Quote: Originally posted by kim kap sol And be 3 times more inefficient? Great to hear that people would rather take the time to move from one desk to another than have everything nicely-organized on one desk. For once I agree with Scott. My…
  • Quote: Originally posted by piwozniak Hi, I had a chance to use compaq tablet for a month, and i think it sucks :-) I just don't see the point. Give me 12" PB and it beats any tablet. And tablets are not more portable. Character recogniti…
