I’m currently looking to upgrade to a Mac and I use CS3 on a Windows XP Pro machine now. I don’t know much about the Macs, but I’ve been impressed with in store demos and online discussions with ease of use.
What I’d like to know from other users is "does Aperture 2 provide any value in a workflow set up?" Since a cost of moving to the new platform will bring some other costs (new software in various areas), I’m trying to limit my investment costs. Does Aperture (at least the way I understand) only provides a light table type approach with basic editing capability? How powerful are the editing tools?
How easy is it to set up a Mac on a home LAN that contains several other Windows machine (my thought here is a "sharing" between the Mac where I’ll download and do Aperture processing of files and use the Windows CS3 machine for the "heavy" post processing – since I rarely get an exposure that doesn’t need post processing).
