    You can parse words/ideas. It really doesn’t matter if you want to call it an upgrade or a new program. Maybe it’s both.

    It is what it is – sweetie.

    You must be an eleven year old or something if you truly missed my point.

    I don’t think I missed your point. The sweetie thing was a bit weird though.

    The only thing weird in your thread is you complain about the “DRAMA!!” so you have obviously been following the reaction to this rollout but in your diatribe conflating the DRAMA!!!! to the “haters and complainers” you didn’t say anything original. Not one word. And nothing was said in earnest. This was not a good faith argument.

    So to sum, it is weird, when you have accomplished nothing here, trying to incite reactions by your arrogance, most of which, all of us have had the displeasure to read repeatedly every day in the first week and have already thoughtfully responded to…so how could you not know that your revolutionary parroted arrogance or ignorance would do nothing but illicit eye-rolling…

    What are you? 12?

    Not to nitpic, but OS9 shipped with OSX early releases, and ran in the classic environment.

    FCP7 is not shipping, and is not available to a new purchases with legacy needs.

    OSX allowed for OS9 workflows.

    FCP X does not allow for FXP 7 workflows.

    I think its pretty safe to say that the only people happy with FCPX are people who don’t do complicated professional editing. You can call us “whiners”, and we’ll call you “amateurs”. How’s that for drama?

    Not one thing new? I am one of the few that is trying to say – STOP WHINING. Give it time, don’t jump ship, give it a try or wait for X.1. Everyone is jumping on the hate Apple & FCP X bandwagon – I am not.

    Maybe I have not accomplished anything but my intention of trying to stop all the whining is not arrogance.

    What’s with the age insults? Sounds like something a 12 year old would say. LOL OMG

    [Sean Thomas] “Not one thing new? I am one of the few that is trying to say – STOP WHINING. Give it time, don’t jump ship, give it a try or wait for X.1. Everyone is jumping on the hate Apple & FCP X bandwagon – I am not.”

    You think that’s new? You posted a bogus tasteless kool-aid letter from Jobs that was made well over a week ago saying the exact same thing. Look up the word – redundant. Don’t be surprised if your picture is there…

    [Sean Thomas] “Maybe I have not accomplished anything but my intention of trying to stop all the whining is not arrogance.”

    Was that all it was. Oh, I guess all the pejoratives and name calling were intended to engage people in the hopes they might bow to your revolutionary and thought-provoking enlightenment…? The irony is rich. Usually whining is accompanied with name calling. I wonder, will you ever comprehend the purest of irony from your, yes, written like a 12 year old wrote it, diatribe…

    “It’s funny – Pro Editors want only what they can concieve of. Apple gives them what they can’t imagine and they resist.”

    Exactly!!! And I also agree about it having 50-100 new features and about 10-15 or so missing. Bottom line this is a very cool program. It ain’t ready just yet but when it is, I’m betting that all who complained and bounced will be right back.

    [Robert Brown] “How could they not copy when the guy who developed Premiere then moved to Apple to work on FCP. It’s a small pond really.”

    If you want to see Ubillos’ handiwork on an Adobe product, you’ll have to go back…waaaay back. Premiere 3 or 4 (before Pro) was the very last version he would have touched…way before it would have been even somewhat considered a Pro editing application. That would be 11 major releases back for those of you counting.

    …and the ground-up code overhaul the application got when it added the “pro” to the name (I know…not very original…I think that’s the feature that Adobe stole from FCP)was 6 major releases ago.

    I think Premiere Pro users are probably ecstatic he moved to another opportunity when he did, standing where we are today…

    He makes an absolutely amazing consumer app though…and I say that without a shred of sarcasm.
