iPhoto

As part of the 1st phase of migration from the HP/Windows laptop to the MacBook Pro. I had transferred all the photos into the user/photo directory in the Mac. iPhoto is quite user-friendly and I had no issues importing it into iPhoto and iPhoto actually creates "events" based on the old directory structure in which the photos were arranged in Windows. There are separate directories for each trip/event photos and iPhoto just took the directory name and use that to name the "event." Cool, I love it.

But I still have a gripe with iPhoto. It seems to have created duplicates of the photos in the iPhoto directory. But since the iPhoto directory structure is not so obvious (at least not yet), I am a bit concerned about deleting the files in the user/photo directory. But it is eating into the available disk space.

I will figure this out in the future.
