    My apologies, I actually READ the article (ah, duh!) and I get it. Not cool at all….I thought this was just more useless bitching, but the guy is kind of a *warm turd.

    *Note: No one paid me to say that.

    [Chris Kenny] “Could you please explain what information Apple released via Pogue, that was cited in this forum, has not been borne out, other than the Red workflow information, which was identified as being incorrect at the time?”

    Sometimes spin is more about the information that’s left out, and who that omission benefits.

    [Brian Langeman] “Don’t know how much, if any of that was sarcastic hehe.”

    Very wise. < snicker >

    ” I am not about to find every single thread on the internet which talks positively about apple or FCPX and try and derail it.”

    I agree, I don’t have that kind of time right now, I can barely keep up with my workload that does not include writing about stuff.

    Personally, I’m still waiting for substantive information on record from Apple. Hearsay, even if verified by the multiple non-official, non-Apple people you like to quote, remains nothing but hearsay until Apple goes on record to verify it.

    Perhaps you will understand more about my position on this kind of information when you later read my coming missive about Apple’s reported plan, posted by Craig Seeman on this forum characterized as “news from Apple,” in which Craig writes: “#2 Ability to buy FCP7 licenses for enterprise deployments coming in the next few weeks…”

    BTW, notice Chris, that I wrote ” Apple’s reported plan.” I didn’t write “Apple’s plan.” Do you see a difference? Do you know why I wrote that? Do you know why I’m pointing it out to you?

    Most of the substantive content from Pogue’s articles on FCP X a) was independently verifiable by anyone with a copy of FCP X (he was giving Apple’s responses to various misapprehensions about the software) or b) has been confirmed by the FAQ Apple released.

    As far as I can tell, nobody is relying on Pogue’s credibility with respect to any arguments presently being made in this forum.
