Not as good as Picassa, which is free!, 2008-07-08 Apple is selling what should have been a free update to iPhoto. Worse, it confuses iPhoto into creating multiple copies of each photo, and has a schizo stacking algorithm.
The omissions are glaring.
No duplicate finder, no layers, weak cropping and poor output controls.
They have, however, jumped on the "pug-in" train to up-sell even more "features" which ought to come with a program like this.
No where near as good as even Photoshop Elements, and even slower, even on fast hardware.
Apple should go back to photography school.
