Not bad for a first attempt at moving this to the desktop from the
capture device. Doesn't negate the need for a pan/tilt head for
serious movies but for family shots it's worth the cost to upgrade to
the new iLife alone I think. More examples here:

Oh, and the face recognition in iPhoto will keep your CATS organized
too. Can they haz cheezburgers?

We'll talk a lot about Mac Vs. PC and Mac AND PC in this class. All
of my business stuff is PC based but I have 3 Macs at home and a
dedicated PC only for videogaming. If it weren't for games I'd be all
Mac at home.

Kindle 2 coming in 2 weeks. We'll see how that goes, I wasn't all
that impressed with the first one.
