The only bit of iLife I actually use is iPhoto, and I'd been copying my
legit copy from machine to machine but it did not survive the Lion upgrade
(on just one of my 3 machines - don't know why).

I spent an hour or so trying to figure out why it kept crashing then
realised that I could get a brand new copy from the Appstore for about the
price of a couple of beers (and a lot less than the cost of an hour of my
time). I paid up :-)
