Steve, you’ve never wanted a keyboard when writing a long email on a tablet? Even with smart keyboards like Swiftkey it’s not a fluid creative experience with my brain finger combination. I have a nice wireless Logitec mini keyboard & trackpad that I plug into my Iconia’s USB port when I take my tab out and I know I’m going to want to write something. The Surface Pro will save me the extra baggage. I expect it will replace the need for an Ultrabook in a lot of use scenarios and it weighs less and will probably cost less.

[Tim Wilson] “While the lacko’apps will be a massive, insurmountable deal killer, man”
hmmm…how many windows apps are there now? I don’t think anyone keeps track anymore. And most of them are real apps, not toy apps. While it’s true they can’t be driven by finger gestures right off the bat, how long will it take for Adobe Reader, ferinstance, to respond to ones foredigits. Besides, fingers are good for turning pages but for detailed work they are kinda suck – way too big in case no one’s noticed. That’s why Sammy’s sold millions of stylus equipped Galaxy Notes.
Nope, the keyboard & trackpad equipped Pro Surface is a fairly brilliant stroke and the kickstand kinda stops it from falling down when you need to use it on a flat surface.
If it works, I want one.

[Chris Harlan] ” Frankly, I think Apple’s collective head is so far up its cloud that they don’t even notice the dang thing. UNTIL, they hear enough noise to make them think “oh, yeah. That.” So, they pathetically fake an upgrade. “No honey, I knew it was our anniversary… Look, see, I brought you the other half of this burrito.””
Nicely put. This forum is fostering some good writing.

[Lance Bachelder] “FCPX is using much more than just 32 bit float as you mentioned”
He didn’t mention. So where are you getting the idea that FCPX is using much more than 32 bit float? And if you can show some stills of rendered material that clearly demonstrates that FCPX output is better than any other NLE it would help. Otherwise we might think it’s just Lance again, off on one of his enthusiastic, but somewhat delusional, benders 🙂

I’ve found zero problems with Ex material on Windows machines.

[Oliver Peters] “I was just able to run a test with the same clip and filter in PProCS6 on the 12-core Mac Pro. Export/render using the AME function. Took approx. 2:30, which is under half the time that the equivalent function took in FCP X using the exact same machine.”
Champagne for the house! Put it on Dennis’ tab.

Jules, I hope Craig finds your post as funny as everyone else does on this forum. Well, maybe with a few exceptions…. 🙂

[Tim Wilson] “To their credit, I think they did that halfway tongue in cheek.
Maybe not.”
They have a sense of humour about themselves?
Your tongue is planted firmly in cheek. I can see it, between the hair falls.

I believe Andrew was talking about the perception of FCPX as broken, not whether it is or not.

[Andrew Richards] “If Adobe starts adding in major features in minor updates to CS6, then sod it, the whole App Store advantage trope is bollocks.”
But Andrew, the whole point of the Creative Cloud is to download new features with updates. Of course, Adobe continues to offer the normal methods of delivery with just bug updates…like all the other companies out there… 🙂
