[MacDV] Imovie'o8

[Shirley Kehr]

I was thinking about that too. I guess there are some things that each  
version does that the other doesn't. But if your students plan to go  
any further with video editing, it would certainly be good to have  
some experience with '06, which has a more normal video editing  
interface. I don't have time to read and digest these, but google for  
'imovie 08 versus 06' for a bunch of topics discussing this. When  
iMovie 08 first came out, most of the people in the iMovie forum  
dismissed '08. But I think many are checking it out and finding some  
useful features. One might be accepting more cameras using newer  
formats.
