Premiere on Windows or OSX?
I just want to get an idea of everyone’s preference operating system to run Premiere Pro on. I’ve been running it on Windows 7 myself and having minimal problems however it’s always good to get a different perspective.
So does anyone edit on OSX and if so, how’s the experience for you? And how is your compatibility with your Windows brothers, do all files and projects transfer with no incident?

Most things move from one operating system to the other with no problem, but there are some things to keep in mind.

As a Freelancer I am constantly flipping OSX to PC and vice versa. The effects and transitions are really the only things that jump out. Most edits (requiring straight edits or cross dissolves/dip to black or white/audio effects are fine.
Personally I prefer working on the PC. I use a MBP C2D 2.66 4gig ram 320 hdd with bootcamp. OSX since snow leopard feels sluggish compared to win7 64bit. Leopard felt about the same as win7 but current OSX just ain’t as snappy on the same machine as windows 7.
Each to his own. My opinion. Premiere Pro CS5 performs pretty much the same on either. It feels a little heavy on OSX, but that could be the OS itself making me feel working with CS5 is slower.
