And you’re comfortable with telling clients the phrase “I edit on Final Cut X”?
Things change. Heck the movie Monsters from last year was edited using the Adobe Creative Suite. Do people still think of Premiere as the same software they tried out 10 years ago?

That’s what I never could understand. Adobe obviously produces great software in design. I could never figure out why people couldn’t grasp the concept that Adobe could eventually duplicate that success with an NLE.
Premiere got a bum rap was because it did have its problems years ago and word of mouth gets around and all of suddenly people who never used Premiere are bashing it in 2011. Herd mentality
People won’t touch premiere because they had a terrible experience with it 10 years ago, BUT they are just fine with using other Adobe products. To me that doesn’t make any sense. You obviously are aware that the company is capable of producing good design software. Shouldn’t be a shock that the software would eventually mature into something very good.
