Recent rumors suggest that Apple is about to release a major upgrade to Aperture, their professional photo management and editing application. Of course, there have been rumors before, so I’m trying not to get my hopes up. I’ve tried Lightroom, and I just can’t stomach it’s approach to workflow management. I don’t really want follow the One True Way, as written by Adobe. What I’m really hoping though is that if Apple does decide to kill off Aperture, they don’t do what they did to Hypercard – leave it as an SKU for 10 years after they have killed off the product.
