[Steve Connor] “Not really, it won’t run FCPX so it’s irrelevant ☺”
This forum has often covered debates about FCPX alternatives. After all that was the ‘..or not’ question this forum was founded on. So of course it is relevant to talk about hardware alternatives to MacPro as it affects the many editors that use X, CC, Resolve, Avid etc.
It is very much part of the ongoing debate also for the Hackintosh users who also frequent this forum. So yes this hardware can run FCPX. It’s just hardware. Chose your OS and run whatever you want. But don’t pretend this forum is here just for just FCPX users. Never has been so stop trying trying to railroad it from its original debate purposes.

I’ll just note that Tim and the forum runners elected to CHANGE the name of the forum – largely because the “or not” part of the debate was felt to be obsolete.
Many people opined at the time that X had achieved all the functional parity it needed so that the “or not” part of the issue was pretty much settled.
And I think that was obviously the correct call, since FCP X is gaining at least half a million global users a year as Apple announced yesterday.
It took a few years for the first FCP X million. Apple said at NAB last year it reached two million FASTER than the still beloved Legacy – and now it’s growth rate appears to be at least 20% annually.
That’s seems pretty darn healthy.

What’s that got to do with anything? It’s still a debate forum centered around FCPX btw with just a less snarky name. No one in this thread even brought up the merits of X.

I think he should actually take FCPX out of the name and just call it “NLE Debates” FCPX users could take the conversations over to the FCPX forum itself

FCPX has always had both forums. Name changes still seem unnecessary to me. You’ve always had the option to chose which forum to argue in but for many of us we don’t trespass into a genuine FCPX forum. This forum isn’t and never has been despite recent attempts to banish us pesky debaters.

No-one is trying to banish anyone!

Uh,, nobody has EVER attempted to banish anyone.
I just don’t want the forum to become a sea of AVID only or ADOBE discussions.
There are specific forums for those.
I think it’s reasonable for this one to retain at least a modicum of relevance for the FCP X users who see the forum name – and expect the posts here to relate to that.
