Aperture Now Shipping

took just over a month only to start shipping!
haha, not surprised, at least people will get it before xmas.
 
Neither. It's mainly a photo management and versioning app for RAW files. Speed is its main selling point.
 
Can't wait to start reading some actual reviews and finally be able to play with it myself.

Hopefully its exactly what I have been asking for. More organization software with a dash of simple editing. :p
 
cool...except I think my bastard roommate(whome wants to get into photography, yes he has talent)has already pulled the trigger on a dell...I thought 5 months of using my g5 with a 20" would have done it...but no:rolleyes:
 
Every time I see something else, I really regret buying Extensis Portfolio. Aperture really puts the nails in my coffin.

Rumour has it Dells are cheaper than Macs, they are better for gaming and there are more apps that run on a PC than on a Mac.....;) :p

I think that is the ATI Radeon 9600 Pro.

You're covered. :D

That's what it seems to be, since I have one, though mine is modified for a Quicksilver. Too bad my Quicksilver isn't covered but odd that my PowerBook is.

Great!

May want to check out the specs before ordering. Even my PowerMac G5 doesn't look like it's ready to run Aperture until I upgrade the video card to at least 512MB RAM.

Unless you've got a Nvidia 5200 you'll be OK.
You don't need 512MB video RAM to run it - that would exclude everyone bar Quadro owners! Where did you get that idea?

I have the 5200. :(

I figure I'll be safe with 512MB of RAM to start.


Here's to the Crazy Ones ​

So, so sorry! ;)

I don't understand why the 5200 shouldn't work, as it's Core Image supported. You might find a hack becomes available - like there was for FCP 4 and PCI graphics cards.

Hang in there.
