Apple Takes a Step Back With iMovie ’08 – say the NY Times 0

iLife '08 0

iLife 08 - from Apple

Well after receiving my copy friday morning I installed and started to use the programs. I have read on other blogs about the problems with iMovie and it not having all the ability’s of it’s previous version. I have found though that for importing movie clips and working on them it’s so much quicker to use.

iPhoto with it’s new ‘Events’ listing although not quite good enough for what I want, found it a great asset to hover over folders to see there contents, maybe they will add this to other apple apps?!
