Digital Media Edition (see my review), Microsoft Photo Story 3 was instead realigned as a standalone application that all Windows XP users will be able to download for free. And bravo to that decision, because Photo Story 3 is, arguably, the greatest tool ever made for digital photography enthusiasts. In this review, I'll examine the new features in Photo Story 3 and discuss how much it's improved since the Plus! Photo Story and Plus! Photo Story 2 days. But let me cut the chase right now: If you use Windows XP, you need to download Photo Story 3 immediately. It's that good."</i><br /><br />It's just announced, and Paul Thurrott already has a review ready to go. How does he do it? 8O I talked with Microsoft about Photo Story 3 a few months ago, and I was hopeful I'd get to beta test it for them, but it looks like that didn't happen. ;-) Check out Paul's excellent review.
