There are lots of links on Google that compare the Xeon to the i7 – well worth a read before you chuck huge amounts of money at Apple – but I can’t find one that compares Xeon versions, maybe someone else can. It’s all so incredibly far from what you actually need to run 1080p. Xeons aren’t meant for this job, they’re optimised for servers – I’m using a quite old (in computer terms) Core i5 to run PPro, and it works fine.

November 20, 2013 at 5:34 pm in reply to: About – “Seasoned Film Editor Takes Adobe Premiere Pro CC For a Spin”So – I thought I’d got the idea, but I didn’t want to be blatant about it.
But – without looking back, can anyone name the product? How easy was it to remember? What about the piece did you remember first?
The most qualified focus group around makes its conclusions…….

November 19, 2013 at 9:13 am in reply to: About – “Seasoned Film Editor Takes Adobe Premiere Pro CC For a Spin”Thinking a bit more about the commercial rather than the editing, and having seen the piece several times now, I remember –
A red sports car
Mario Andretti (somewhat retired)
A cliche police interceptionWhat was the product they were advertising?
Haven’t the faintest.
It was ever thus.

Old memories stir of racing in and out of Soho post houses, where the rates made our BBC eyes water, whilst the 30″ commercial being cut next door was in its fifth day. I suppose there’s a good bit of psychology in how long it takes and how much you can charge the client.

November 7, 2013 at 11:21 pm in reply to: Better snap up those Mac Pro towers while ye mayI rather think that a step by step design which has “interior lighting” as one of its early options isn’t making gear for the likes of editing professionals. If you’re avoiding “tomato soup cans” look at a buyer’s guide such as this one –
https://www.tonymacx86.com/393-building-customac-buyer-s-guide-october-2013.html .Pick the parts you want to make whatever level of machine you fancy. Put on whatever operating system you wish. Outside in the big world of the pc things change quickly and incrementally. You don’t have to wait for the next big announcement, just stick in a new bit – CPU, GPU, whatever.
