Aperture 3.01 update released, update on my iPhoto ‘09 migration

Over on our sister site ProVideo Coalition, Mike Curtis has a great article about his move to Aperture 3. Here's a taste:

Two things:

1.) Apple today released Aperture 3.0.1, addressing many of the issues I raised with version 3.0

Remember, kids - your time is more valuable than the cost of yet another hard drive, and the 5 minutes it takes to set up a backup copy rolling before leaving for the night. Even for personal projects. Shut up. It was late. I was on the phone. I was busy. I wish I'd been drinking.
