if there is a case for apple being used in enterprise then now would be that time
XP is starting to look end of life, certainly the server products surrounding it look so
my 2 cents:
cloud computing will take over for home users (if its not already)
linux is the server market of the future

linux is the wise choice for enterprise and home in my opinion

windows 7 demands hardware upgrades which many arent going to implement or will look to OS improvements/ease of use in apple.
apple is involved with mobile devices like no other company, certainly in UK, this is not a trend about to abate, android has one hell of a patent war on its hands with oracleplus why debate enterprise, creatives use macs. if they dont at first they will eventually, its classic, I have worked at an internet firm, arts charities,photographers, newspaper and video post, all creatives in these companies prefer macs and often buy for their own home machines (even if for some its a guilty secret)
for enterprise post production, the products tend to get used and not upgraded for quite some time unless massive productivity is gained. why all this debate about FCPx not being ready for use, it is in a lot of cases, enterprise not, but would you have thought that on a complete rewrite. the modern OSX architectures written into FCPx are to me very heartening, this shows the product will have a life and that most of the moaners understand little of how IT works and just resent that they need to learn something new every five years or so

not at all
you are one of the clever ones
-
yes obviously if we are being pedantic its not a qtreference
I was saying its similar
FCPx has some good features, export is lacking at the moment
not quite sure what is dragging the software down, no need to let this be what u use
-
the send to compressor seems to be similar to qtref
just in tech notes its saying dont open preview for complex sequences not rendered as it will crash

so what your getting at tim is that there’s no DARK METADATA! (the metadata that gets passed through)
all archives go through migration, people should factor that in as a cost, they never do
its people that are the problem not the providers of wrappers
then again AV foundation seems so much better than quicktime and reading metadata into FCPx is good, shame you cant create smart collections or manage the mapping of fields from tapeless cameras to FCPx keywords
-
tap out the cuts with ctrl B and then shuttle through and trim head or trim tail to get what you need, problem with this workflow is its dumb as theres no metadata you can add once clips in timeline

shift f

shut up and figure out what openCL and other core mac OSX technologies bring to the table
this is painful having to watch people with little knowledge of how the OS works comment on what is missing, especially when they keep claiming they are such professionals.
if you knew your stuff you wouldnt be mentioning CUDA

theres lots wrong but is it typical of closed source software with no real roadmap
if you need that reliable roadmap look to opensource and become a developer, go ubuntu
its always been like this
I am shocked that people think its any different
the fact the program runs and runs so fast is a miracle for a 1.0 release and I think something to congratulate the team that built it for
in fact I am really starting to get sick of why its not up to scratch, its perfect for many jobs and not yet ready for others. It has the hooks for developers to have running well in a few months time and really has some fantastic concepts.

shame people not using Motion
they are missing out, much more efficient software than AE in my opinionsome things arent as good, a lot of things are better
also many people are unaware of how it works
