    It is always a good thing to do before posting, “How will Bob respond to this.”

    Thank you Bob once again you lightened my day. I will buy you a free drink at the NAB gathering.

    [walter biscardi] “I’m still waiting for the free Nick Rashby autographed 8×10 with every Kona 3 order.”

    You did not order 10 cards?

    That was the minimum order for the signed photo offer.

    Yes Bob is always elegant in his delivery 🙂 wow

    He is like the Simon Cowell for the The Cow…..with wild hair of course.

    We still must not forget that peoples perceptions do mean something and it could be a perception that AJA isn’t doing much because they are not releasing a gazillion low end solutions that are absolutely meaningless to a high-end workflow.

    Cheers,

    Well walter, I’m getting ready to buy 4 AJA KONA (3 or 4?) cards so I really hope that there is a new offering with more hardware acceleration in the cards, and soon! Like NOW!

    Hardware acceleration for real time FX (and not just transitions). How about rendering acceleration for Motion and AE?

    [Pat McGowan] “Hardware acceleration for real time FX (and not just transitions). How about rendering acceleration for Motion and AE? “

    Motion relies on the GPU. AE relies on the processors.

    More realtime FX is easily achieveable with high speed arrays.

    Wow horsey Wow! Easy there fellas.

    Look you got me all wrong. I have a allot of money invested in AJA hardware, and it is in my best interest to fly the AJA flag. I’m not questioning the quality, performance or Price of AJA’s superior products. I’m just saying that too often when I suggest AJA to studios I keep getting “AJA… what’s that?” …but BMD they know all too well.
    This analogy is kind of different but follow me here… there have been times that I have to explain to computer experts (younger ones mainly) who believe that AMD are the pioneers and Intel is the small clone company playing catch-up. The same can happen to AJA. So Bob it’s one thing to be in a bubble singing “we are the champions..” and the reality may be that many customers (who don’t care about price) are seeing the glitz and glamour of a competitor. AJA has made me quite a bit of money and its just my concerns and love for the AJA product that sparked this post that’s all.

    What type of studios are you talking to? I cannot see how any professional shop does not know who AJA is unless they do zero reading or research.

    But honestly want type of response where you thinking would happen on an AJA forum. Nobody is knocking BMD, not even Bob, everyone is just wondering what you are wanting from AJA, cheap HDMI only cards? it is not there market. But sitting on their laurels?????? Thems fighting words. Asking the same question in a different manner might have gotten a softer response.
