Bibble or Bibble pro

Ahoy folks. Just a quick enquiry (typed one handed, juggling a baby).

I have ben using bibble pro (trial ver.) and think it is a great peice of software. My trial period is almost up, and I am going to register it.

My question is, is it worthwhile getting the Pro version over the Lite version. I know what differences there are in work ques etc, but that is not something I am likely to use. Also I don't have a duel core computer, so that feature is redundant also.

Any opinions out there folks?

Thanks!

:)

I'm seriously fond of the pro version. I find that no matter how much better PS is for some things I still prefer to queue up tif conversions in Bibble rather than waiting for PS to get its act together. So much easier to work on a smaller image then let the proper job happen in the background.

This is with a dual core, 4GB RAM machine though, on a single core it's possibly not quite so dramatic. Right now I'm working on panoramas so there's a bit of a cycle stitch-tweak-stitch cycle going on, and Bibble's storing a 4kB "settings" file for each image rather than just a tiff is really useful there. I mostly like that feature because it means I just need to archive the original raw and any final jpegs, not the intermediate steps.
