One thing is for sure that apple has not emerged a clear winner out of this. Its a going to be a divided house.

He wants to know about all kinds of things: ancient history, nineteenth-century mathematics, current manufacturing techniques, flower arranging, and hog futures. Because he never knows when these ideas might come together to form a new idea. It may happen six minutes later or six months, or six years down the road.

I like the CS 5.5 master collection for $550 upgrade. Course, I just upgraded to the master collection in December… Adobe is really off my tax writeoff purchase schedule. Apple too.

You could not be more ‘spot on’ Paul.
That looks like a damn good option now!

I think that is still left up for debate. I think that if apple comes back and upgrades the rest of the studio then a lot of people will be significantly more comfortable. I don’t think I’ve been hearing many complaints about Final Cut Pro X itself. More that there is just a lot left unknown. The updates that have been made really are great and have been wanted. Background rendering is HUGE!
So far, my biggest issues are the unknown (as of now) nature of the full studio, and also at $299 price through the app store just does not feel pro. That’s how much FCP Express costs. I spent the full price on Studio 3 and was expecting to upgrade the entire suite for $299 like it has always been.
Bottom line, there must be more that we don’t know yet that is going to make a huge difference. If not, then the upgrade better be no more than 50 dollars.

Yep. And that includes all the bundled apps, such as Sorenson Squeeze, Smartsound, etc. Looks like there’s only one real “pro” on the block now. Well, maybe one and a half, if Adobe keeps their stuff together.

Matthew, I feel you pain, and I’m going to help you out by re-selling you a COPY OF FCP-X FOR $999.95 BECAUSE I’M JUST THAT KIND OF NICE GUY.

It’s all about the perception of quality. Sometimes it just feels better to pay more… like when I buy the organic celery.

Walter Biscardi indicated last week, that this might have really been an honest to God last minute decision to show up by Apple. (If so perhaps they not ready to show the rest of the suite.
