May 6 Meeting: Apple Senior Systems Engineer David M. Marra – Apple iLife ’09 and iWork ’09
Apple Senior Systems Engineer Dave Marra gave MUG ONE members a terrific show his eighth annual presentation on May 6 in 103 Golisano Hall on the Hartwick College campus.In typical whirlwind fashion, Dave showed us creative new ways to work with digital photos, movies, music and more with the iLife ’09 suite, highlighted by demos of iMovie ’09′s new image stabilization feature, GarageBand’s amazing musical composition and learning features and iPhoto ’09′s souped-up slide show themes and formats.
He also gave us a look at how easy and fun word processing, spreadsheets and presentations can be with iWork ’09, which continues to be compatible with Microsoft Office.
Dave fielded a slew of questions from the audience of more than forty attendees, and set our minds at ease about recent media allegations of Mac “viruses” – simply not true, as Dave explained. After his presentation door prizes were awarded and refreshments were enjoyed. Dave was in top form and attendees came away with plenty of ideas and inspiration. We’re looking forward to seeing Dave again next year. After all, May is Marra Month at MUG ONE!
