From the review Jonathan recommended: Bento has no documents. All your data is stored somewhere in the ether of your operating system, much like your iPhoto and iTunes libraries. (I've been looking through iPhoto's libraries and can sorta of figure out their method, but it's not easy.)
multi-predicate joins articulated portal sprockets (Marta, maybe you can translate these phrases for me?) The entire system seems to try as hard as possible to dispense with complex database concepts and terminology. (Dispense doesn't seem to mean revert to "simple.") I have trouble with FileMaker, Bento seems to be even more difficult to understand, at least for those of us who only have a six-grade database education. I still like AppleWorks database for my uses. But after I put Leopard on my machine. I may try it. But then again I already own FMP, so why extend myself.
