Aperture
I was in B&H Photo yesterday picking up a Christmas gift for my brother when I noticed that they were about to start an Aperture demo in their corporate conference room. I navigated my way up and into the offices where a nice enough Apple guy began the hour and half demo. Apple might have chosen someone more familiar with the program. The guy stumbled around it like a newbie and several times had to refer to a little cheat sheet. On one level it was nice to see as that is more than likely the way we'd all be coming to it. That is, if we buy it.
Which brings me to the point of today's entry. After careful review and a gut feeling, I'm holding off on purchasing what I had hoped would be a solution to my digital workflow hassles. I found a fantastic and critical review that sealed my decision to wait for a later version. There is a drop-dowm menu if you just want to scoot to the conclusion. I have my fingers crossed that the future is bright for Apple in this domain.
Take pictures.

I was very underwhelmed as well. I'm not sure where Apple is going with this piece of software.
