Right. So what's the issue? He's upgrading from iPhoto to Aperture, hence the original post. This update is timely because of our complaints against 3.0.

But it really isnt. Aperture is not really an upgrade to iPhoto. They have different aims and purposes.
And Aperture update 3.0.1 isnt going to do that.

I really wish I could work out your point. The guy says he is upgrading his dads comp from iphoto to Aperture. iphoto is a library manager with simple editing, Aperture is a library manager with much more advanced editing, so what is your point exactly?

Apple tries to get you to 'upgrade' from iPhoto to Aperture. Aperture really is kind of a 'super' iPhoto, in my opinion. I'm not sure what Aperture 1-2 were like but 3.0 is very much like iPhoto on steroids.
Obviously they have different target markets, but I would say they serve a very similar purpose, hence why so few people actually use both.
Anyway, this update feels much more robust than 3.0. I'm getting less beachballs, and things feel a bit snappier.

Damn it. Still doesn' t fix faces. It keeps asking me the exact same faces over and over again. Embarrasing Apple!!!

You should stop digging. Aperture is a perfectly acceptable upgrade path for amateur photographers who have outgrown iPhoto or want to get more out of their DSLR -- I am one such user.
Select the person, click the "confirm faces" button, and then it will give you the option to say that this is "not so and so".
3.0.1 is working really fine for me, even though my library is currently updating 5860 previews. i'm even using an advertised feature (faces), hooray
btw: faces works really fine for me after confirming a few shots..

Photoshop and aperture aren't doing the same thing. Aperture is constantly managing a massive (at least in my case) library of Raw images, metadata, and proxy images. When the app is running slow have a look and see if the processing icon is spinning. Also check system profiler and see how much ram and processor is being used. There are also options that might fit a computer with ONLY 2gb of ram (bare minimum for pro apps these days, even Photoshop if you work with high res complicated images). You can disable background processing and adjust the way the proxy images are generated.
Ok, I got to say that I'm loving Places.
I love that it searches Google from within the app to pull location information.
I just spend about an hour or so adding location info to a ton of my pictures and am loving that I can see my pictures on a map.
Great feature!

I agree. Faces in Aperture isn't even up to iPhoto standards. In iPhoto, once I reject a face, it doesn't come back. iPhoto also does a much better job with its guesses. I have about 5 projects in Aperture where there are 20-30 shots in each that are nearly all the same (slight expression differences). Aperture only suggests 3 or 4 images at a time might be matches, whereas iPhoto correctly tags all of them. I can't believe they released this and it doesn't even work as well as their basic level photo program.
Please make sure you're submitting feedback.
Is Aperture still running tasks on your library when you're trying this? Window>Show Activity.
I'm not having that problem on my MacBook 1.83 C2D with D90 RAW files.
The first two were as well, but weren't as accessible as Aperture 3 is. Will be interesting to see if the pro-style keyboard shortcuts (with very few command/modified keys required) cause trouble for new users from iPhoto.
