    [David Roth Weiss] “I don’t shell out money to buy unknowns. If Apple declares its hand and explains what they’re actually selling the public for $300, that might change my opinion. Until then, I’m waiting on the sidelines.”

    Wise advice my friend!
    OK, I can’t blame you for being an optimist. But I had to bust your chops a little on the sky is falling thing.
    All kidding aside, I was getting corn-fused trying to figure out your position on this for a while.

    I have a system, it has stuff in it, and stuff hooked to it. I have a camera, it can record stuff. I read the manuals, and know how to use this stuff and lots of other stuff too.
    You should be suitably impressed…

    [David Roth Weiss] “So, who’s in???”

    I think you just described the history of Las Vegas.

    [David Roth Weiss] “It won’t run on my current ATI graphics card and so I have not bought a copy. My good friend and cameraman has it up and running though.”

    So I’ve been quiet today after the same experience on 2008 MacPro. Interesting but it looks like it’ll install on my 2010 MacMini.

    So when I walk the client past my MacPro to my MacMini to edit and they ask:
    “Why are you taking us to the MacMini to edit when you have an 8 Core MacPro?”
    I respond:
    “Everyone knows a 2010 Toyota blows away a 2008 Mercedes Benz.”

    Ordered my Radeon 5770 overnight delivery.

    [David Gallessich] “And does this mean you’ll be making any revisions to that ‘seamless transition’ tutorial?”

    What Apple have given us is even more reason to install FCP X on a new partition; you can wipe it clean much more easily and simply move on to the next app.

    I’ve been confused and I’m finding Apple’s handling of this entire episode more confusing the longer it they allow it to go on with any damage control. All along I kept saying Randy Ubilos and his team were really smart, but I’m seriously beginning to wonder now. Form the sneak all the way until now, they’ve shown that they are completely out of touch. They’ve never managed to fix the vast majority of the problems in FCP in the past, and they’ve clearly given up on that now.
