Edward C. Baig (USA Today) begins his review of the new iMac and iLife â08 by saying, âAppleâs svelte iMac computers always turn heads. But Iâm also smitten with the Macâs rock solid OS X operating system and top-shelf iLife software suite â programs that tame pictures, videos and more.â After exploring the new iMac hardware and individual iLife applications, such as iPhoto and iMovie, Baig finishes, âTaken as a whole, iLife remains the best collection of multimedia software. And in looks, design and pizazz, the iMac is still the best desktop computer for home users.â

Gabe: So I picked up my MacBook Pro a few months back and I would not call myself a convert but I do really like it. I"ve been doing all the basic iLife stuff, like making DVD"s of Gabe"s birthday party and photocasting pictures to the family. I am getting much more comfortable with the Mac but there are still some things I don"t quite understand and so I have a couple questions for you guys.
