Come see iLife'08 presented

Come and see Bob "Dr. Mac" LeVitus put together a project using iLife '08 from beginning to end. He will use all the applications from that suite: iPhoto, iMovie, iWeb, GarageBand, and iDVD. You will learn the many ways to share your masterpiece with friends and family. iLife '08 is free with every new Macintosh. Maybe it's time to see what is new in iLife '08 ($79) in case you still have an older version.
