Anyone tried it yet? Experiences? Opinions?

I still haven't gotten around to updating to 10.6 on my laptop, so I haven't had a chance to poke around yet. I've been seeing mentions of huge price drops on existing software, though, which is a pleasant surprise. For example, Aperture is reportedly $79 after retailing for $199 on a disc.

I sprung for Pixelmator for thirty bucks, I thought it was closer to Photoshop than Aperture, and what I really need to do is things like banners, buttons, etc. for web design. I'm a little annoyed at some of the price drops just b/c I went through a certain amount of hardship to afford some programs that are now like $15. Sigh. Especially YummySoup, which after I sprang for the second version deleted half my information in a 10K recipe database.
