With iPhoto not available for Windows everything else would be a bit
strange anyway...

Well, that's good news! I was envisioning having to load tons of
stuff back into iPhoto...

Aperture is supported now, at least for the iPad, which simplifies life

I found a new use for iPhoto this week. I'd done a load of screenshots
which I wanted to turn into a Keynote presentation.

I imported the images into iPhoto and put them in their own folder, then
simply selected them all and dragged them into the left sidebar in
Keynote. Instant presentation!
