the kind people over at acd systems offered me a copy of their latest addition, the acdsee pro photo manager to try out. i haven't really had the opportunity to put it to a real test (mostly because i recently migrated to apple; the only place where i have access to a windoze-based pc is at work). judging from what i've seen so far, the pro photo manager does the work alright. more thoughts on the manager will follow. i just wish it came in apple falvour as well...
