iLife '06 vs iLife '08

[cheesyapple]

I'm buying a refurbished Macbook, and instead of coming with the newest ilife 08, it comes with 06. Does this matter and should i care, or should i upgrade it or look for another option.

So basically How Much Better is Ilife 08 compared to the older 06,

Cheers

its pretty nicer.. but all my iLife 08 apps seem to be using a LOT of memory - iPhoto 100Mb at startup.. not cool

If you're buying refurbished, it'll have '06 installed, with a disc for '08 in the box. All refurbs come with the most up to date software available, even if it's not installed, and only included in the box.

I just bought a new white iMac from a reseller and it came loaded with iLife '06. Any chance Apple would come up with a free upgrade to '08 or am I just pissing in the wind?

Not for free. It'll cost $10 if you meet the requirements.
