Welcome Final Cut X

[Mark Suszko] “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.”
Mark, man i just love you!
Here i am lost in my thoughts trying to evaluate FCP X with my little brain & there you are with ‘witty’ & ‘Funny’ one liners.
I really admire you & the way you take things as they come.

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. But he has faith that it will happen.” — Carl Ally

You’re of course correct. But there is something ‘Pro” about shared storage, device control, shared projects, working online and film lists, etc. These are the areas I expected to see developed, not auto-everything.
Grrrrr.

That’s not how a real businessman thinks, is it?. Pay less, get more=good. But the night is young, and there are many questions as yet left unanswered.

[Mark Suszko] ” the night is young, and there are many questions as yet left unanswered.”
Apparently, there will be no Q&A with Apple.
So, the night may not be as young you’d think and there are indeed many questions left unanswered.

Matthew, it’s not about money, it’s about features, about being a pro application,
about honoring army of people who not only invested money but time to learn and perfect the application or suite… and now suddenly (honestly it wasn’t sudden for me, I saw it coming) you are going to drop us
because you don’t need our money any more, it’s peanuts (comparing to what they are earning from iP gadgets) for us (Apple).
Thats’ the problem, and that’s the answer to those who were saying all these years: “you don’t need to upgrade, use a tool (application) that you want”.We invested our time (first of all) and money and our whole system around you, and you are giving me iMovie X, iMovie on steroids.

Well, no one has ever accused me of being a real businessman.

So far, I have way more questions than answers — but I suppose that was to be expected.
While the debate over whether FCPX is geared towards consumers starts up in earnest, I’d like to point out one decidedly pro feature: FCPX finally using ColorSync is a big deal. Real color management in FCP has been all I’ve wanted for Christmas for years.

I think we’ll all have to wait and see.
As Mark and many others have said, there are many unanswered questions. I think there are too many at this point to make any definitive statements with any degree of certainty.
