I think if it works as well as the movies show (but probably on a fast
machine only), it could be a real photoshop killer for many
photographers. It has the features photographers need, excellently
thought out version system, virtual lighttable, and fast comparing of
photographs, excellent backup system (to several drives at once),
excellent hierarchical keywording/captioning/categories IPTC system. And
all put together in just a way a lot of us wished for a long time.
could be very interesting. However, the hardware requirements are
pretty steep. Especially no support for anything older than fastest G4
powerbooks.
Good light!
