MOST digital cameras come with a CD of their own programs, but you can usually do better by setting that aside. Why? Your computer should recognize the camera when you plug it in without needing any extra software, and you can usually find better applications to organise and edit pictures than what's waiting on that disc.
That Particularly true on a Mac, where Apple's iPhoto outclasses pretty much everything else for consumer use. In Windows XP, try Google's free Picasa (http://picasa.com); in Windows Vista, you can stick with the Photo Gallery program included with Vista, download Picasa or try Microsoft's new, free Windows Live Photo Gallery (http://get.live.com/betas) which adds more editing features to Vista's built-in software.
