Here's why. I own Photoshop CS1, iViewMedia Pro and Portraits & Prints.
I handle over 10 gigs of images for patient photos. It looks like I'll
be able to use one app instead of 3 and get more out of Aperature than I
could EVER figure out in Photoshop.

I think the big competition will be for iViewMedia Pro and Extensis.
