Good thing about microfiche was that they had a physical image which
could be decoded with a microscope, which will likely be around in a
hundred years.

I know, and I think it's a shame. What will my children's children
be able to look at to see their past/ our present? A box of hard
drives, sd cards, and memory sticks that have no possible way to
access them. They will be in the same boat as the aliens that found
our highly advanced LP record with very important messages on it.
Would you be able to put the program you create on a flash drive for
the classmates? Many TVs, and attached gaming consoles have a USB
port.

Your right Bill, the cloud is what is suppose to be our next
movement in the technological food chain. In my case however I
HAVE to print the DVD's, they are to be given away as gifts to all
my classmates, gosh many of them don't even own a computer so
they'll have to watch the program on a DVD player & T.V.
Can't complain, we used to use microfiche, then the large 5"
floppies, then the 3's, then CD's and DVD's so now we are
eliminating those ever so slowly.

Thank you John,
Yes I remember seeing your post. I wonder what they are thinking
is... why make it hard for us to create dvds of our movies/ media?
The MacBook Air doesn't even have a dvd burner, does it? Will we
have to put everything up, up and away in the great cloud?

Bill,
You are right, iDVD is no longer, (this was one of the things I
wrote to Tim Cook about, didn't seem to do much) even for the new
FinalCut X there is NO in depth DVD program. Yes there is a DVD
but it isn't as sophisticated as what we were used to with iDVD.
This is why those with the older version of FinalCut will never
want to get rid of it for inside that program there WAS a
fantastic DVD authoring program THAT CAN STILL BE USED WITH
FinalCut X.
This was the post I made a couple weeks ago, I couldn't load the
OLD FinalCut Pro from the disk, it continued to say the
installation FAILED. I was loading it ONLY for the DVD program.
I learned that indeed portions of the program did load, then
instead of failing the dialogue should have read, "to continue
your installation go to software update and complete the
installation", or something like that.
I didn't have the foggiest if anyone out there used any of these
but I thought it best to post just in case.
You seem to be current on Pages and Numbers.

Hello Group,
I have been trying to catch up on software updates, version
changes, and outdated programs, and in checking what I had and
what was new, I had a question. When iLife programs were in a
suite, I got good at editing my video movies in iMovie, and then
throwing it over to iDVD to make a very useful DVD movie. When
the new iMovie (version 8) came out, it changed what I knew to
do, and I quit learning how to be Cecil B. DeMille. Now I'm
looking to update iMovie and iDVD, but I see no iDVD program.
Did the Final Cut Pro program $$$$, take that process over? Or
is it built into the new iMovie (I hope so)?
Also, I have Pages '09, but it looks like it is current as
version 4.1, and Numbers '09 (version 2.1). It appears these are
current.
Thanks as always,
Hope you all enjoyed this non-winterry week-end.
Bill
