If, of course, your car has a cassette deck which mine does not.

Motti, iLife is a suite of Mac applications that includes iTunes, iMovie, iDVD, iPhoto, and GarageBand. Respectively, they are used for ripping/burning CDs, editing your own movies, burning DVDs and creating menus, maintaining a digital photo album that can be done as a slideshow with music, and mixing/recording your own music. It's pretty suite ("sweet".... get it? heh heh).

Here's a link to more information.

Personally, I was a little more psyched about FinalCut Express. What a killer app for the Mac!

Final Cut is great. But isn't it relatively expensive?

I think it's actually cheaper than FinalCut Pro, but still pricey; most editing suites are. Don't even get me started on how much Avid costs.

Doesn't Avid require its own dedicated hardware as well? May as well not use your computer for anything else.
