Rob Galbraith DPI: Impressions of iWeb

Rob Galbraith DPI: Impressions of the MacBook Pro and iWeb: "Web

The new Intel-based Macs are the stars of MacWorld 2006, and will garner the most attention we expect as machines are delivered to photographers in the weeks ahead. The sleeper hit of the show, however, is iWeb, a new application that's part of Apple's iLife '06 suite. Meant to be a web design application for the rest of us, this seemingly humble little app is not to be underestimated. We were fortunate enough to be able to try it out for about 30 minutes, as well as pepper an Apple staffer involved in its development with questions. Our preliminary verdict? This application has the potential to make the melding of words and pictures on a static web page easier and just plain more fun that we've ever experienced before, without sacrificing the need for a sharp-looking and readily-modified layout in the process."
