will save all your data.
No need to wait for iLife 05, you already have iPhoto and iMovie and when you install the new versions, it will update itself.
There are only 4 programs in iLife, iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie and iDvd. The latter will not install as you do not have a DVD burner. iTunes is for your songs, you already use iPhoto and that only leaves iMovie. With that you can make some really cool slide shows, complete with all the neat transitions, wipes, fades, etc. and sound tracks.
Seems to me that you will be using ALL the programs that iLife installs. ![]()
As for saving your stuff. It is already on your disk drive. Do you mean a CD-R?

I got OS 10.4.3 for Christmas but haven't purchased iLife yet. Half of thos eprograms I might never use, don't have a dvd burner nor video camera. I do like saving images from my digital camera and the web to iPhoto for slide shows, etc. Should I wait until whenever I get iLife to install OS 10.4.3 as a clean install or archive the old system and install the new then install iLife? I have an iBook G3, 800 Mhz, 30 GB HD with just under 8 GB available (much of the HD has songs and images), and 640 RAM. ALSO, I want like to save some of my data to discs (e.g. doc, jpg, etc.) This may seem silly, but how do I send this info to the disc drive? Thanks
