Well, I searched around and couldn't find anything, so here we go! It's a simple question, are you going to buy iLife 07 or not? I know I will, because I do a lot of work in iPhoto and Garageband, so it will be nice to have the latest version of all of those. Plus I get the education discount so I get it for cheaper. What about you?
 
Unless there's some sort of significant new functionality in it that I find really useful -- no.
 
Well hey, we may get a spreadsheet application if the rumors are true. That could come in handy.
 
Nope.

I'm not making any major purchases this year, my plans for 2007 means that every penny counts.

However, when I come back, sometime in 2008, I'll be buying a new iMac or MacBook pre-installed with Leopard, iLife '08 and whatever other goodies Apple decide to include. :)
 
I hate iPhot right now. Some of my family photos are randomly disappearing.:eek:

(Don't get me wrong, all the original versions are still in the "Originals" folder, but they come up with that grey exclamation mark when trying to view them in my Library.
 
Yep. I've only got '05 at the moment, so it'll be worth it for me just for all the extra themes, effects, etc. I tend to use iDVD quite a bit, and the update to Garageband also makes it worthwhile.
 
I'm use the pro apps for everything

imove- final cut
garage band- soundtrack
iPhoto-apeture

etc. etc. etc.

if those aren't enough reasons to buy pro apps over iLife, i don't know what is!
 
Not unless it comes packaged with a dual quadcore Mac Pro. This would mean that I actually found a high paying job, so No.
 
I'll probably buy it...the family pack for the family network o'Macs.

Hopefully that will be compatible for both intel & non-intel macs...that's what I currently have.

I use it mostly for iphoto cataloging stuff along with iphoto library manager. I suppose I could get Apeture for that instead. I always say I'll do more iDVD and iMovie work with slideshows, but that never seems to happen.
 
I'm tired of buying iLife.

For example:

GarageBand: Don't need it... I use Logic Express 7
iPhoto: I use it but, only for organizing my Photos, need to save up for Aperture
iDVD: Never use it
iMovie: Use it once in a while, I could stick with the current version
iTunes: Usually free
iWeb: I do all of my web coding in TextEdit
 
Since I've got iLife '05, I'll probably buy the '07 version, along with iWork.

I'm not sure iWeb is worth much to me but an updated iDVD might be.
