Does anyone on the list have any early beta experience with this?

Anybody who downloads it today is gonna get some "early beta
experience" as this is about as *beta* as I've ever seen a public
release from Adobe :-)
For those who are under the impression that Adobe started writing it
about a month ago, Jeff Schewe's article is well worth a read:
<http://photoshopnews.com/2006/01/09/the-shadowlandlightroom-
development-story/>
I've also added a couple of blog entries here because I was feeling
left out of the debate:
<http://www.idea-digital.com/blog/blog.html>
The first is about my initial impressions of LightRoom. The second is
my incredulity that photographers have started believing that art
directors actually know what they are talking about... or is it just
art directors-turned-retouchers that write articles in "Arse
Technical" that provide the gospel truth on photo workflow software
nowadays?
The only colorsync-users-relevant stuff that I heard prior to
LightRoom's release was that it was a product "without colour
management". Which turns out to be both true and untrue at the same
time - download it and take a look for yourselves.
Apple deserve some criticism for disabling the installation of
Aperture on G4 desktops as well as G4 laptops - I'll bet there are
plenty of G4 users who are going to be very pleased with beta. I can
now run LightRoom on my trusty old G4 dual 1.4 - a desktop machine
which was far faster at handling still and moving images than the
first couple of generations of G5s.
