Jeff Keller has posted an in-depth review of iPhoto, Apple's freeware digital photo management/organization utility: "Apple's iPhoto is a very impressive effort, and a great tool for beginning and intermediate digital photographers. It has a few bugs to work out (it crashed once on me, in addition to the other things I mentioned) and I'd like a few more features, but for version 1.0, it's really nice."

    slight disagreement

    quote from review:

    It reminds me a bit of Adobe's PhotoDeluxe, but it's much more advanced and "in tune" with digital photography.

    let's try again...

    quote from review:

    Well, that depends on what you mean by "advanced." I mean, iPhoto is great at what it was designed to do. I especially like that it takes the resolution issues out of the process for beginners and/or people who just don't want to learn the nuts and bolts of digital photography.

    But in terms of photo manipulation, PhotoDeluxe is much, much more advanced. I would bet that at least half the people who own Photoshop could do just as well with PhotoDeluxe (or perhaps PS Elements, although I haven't used that).

    Of course, iPhoto was not designed to be a Photoshop killer, as many people assumed. An image editing program is a great companion for it.

    iPrefer iView

    I like Apple's approach of a simple program. I don't like Apple's approach of having to copy every single image into a folder that I can't even specify. I don't need my images on my hard drive twice...

    Besides I think: let's not overlook iView for its flexibility for the more advanced users. It can do many more things to the images and it displays many other media formats as well. Check out current version 1.3.1, it is way superior to iPhoto.
