Macworld's Aperture 1.0.1 Coverage

  • Aperture 1.0.1 Aperture combines powerful photo-management and cataloging features with basic image editing and excellent publishing and presentation capabilities. All this is wrapped in an efficient, elegant interface that glitters with typical Apple flair. But no debut is perfect.
