James Duncan Davidson on Aperture 2.0: ‘They Listened’

James Duncan Davidson on a meeting he had with the Aperture team at Apple after he switched to Lightroom:

The one detail I will share is that, at one point, I’m pretty sure I said something along the lines of “I don’t really care how it is implemented under the covers, but what I need is to be able to zip through several hundred photos quickly and rank them. Boom. Boom. Boom. And while I’m doing that, I don’t want to be waiting on the system to render up the images. Those little delays add up.”
