Okay this is big, and you should use whatever option you have to imprint this info into your memory.
Lightroom 1.1 has a new feature that allows you to move a catalog from one computer to another. Best I think, to give you an example.
Let's say you have two computers. A main computer at home and a laptop. The main computer has one main calatog where all your images reside.
You decide to head out to the Wintergardens to take a heap of shots of flowers. You take your laptop with you and while you're away you import all of your shoot from your camera to the laptop. Over lunch you decide to delete a few images, maybe rate them, maybe even make a few changes to your images. All this work is not wasted.
You now have the option of exporting the shoot as a catalog, maybe to your desktop on your laptop. Then when you get back home you can now import that catalog from the desktop on your laptop into Lightroom 1.1 on your main computer AND all the ratings and changes can be imported along with your images. THAT'S BIG and can be a big time saver.

I am enjoying your comments on blog - I have downloaded Lightroom and am very slowly working on through the manual.
Thank you Margaret. And to think, this is only the start for Lightroom... wait for selective editing! I hear from the guys that build this software that this may become a reality in the future. Until then we are stuck with round trip editing with both Photoshop and Lightroom. Lightroom will become THE program for Photographers, hands down.
