CS5 & PPro & Macbook Pro?

[Peter Corbett]

I use CS5 and FCP on my 2009 Mac Pro and I’ve just bought a Macbook Pro 17″ to edit on trips. The Macbooks are definitely under-powered compared to the Windows laptops, but I can use FCP if needed and I keep font comptibility with my agency clients.

Yeah, I know I don’t have the fastest laptop on the block, but I was interested in Mercury Engine GPU acceleration for Premiere Pro. Thanks to Jon, I know I don’t have that capability, but no worries. I’ll at least have 64 bit performance. There will always be a new computer in my future, but I just wanted to know where I”m at.

FCP is my first choice but CS5 is too irresistible. I went ahead & got it for many other reasons. Adobe is really stepping up these days with their product integration & cool features.
