I know a few large facilties that use the Avocent system, the major advantage being you can route any system in your MCR to any connected hub in the building.
You can also password protect certain systems, giving users access only to the systems they need.
Extenders will just do that, extend one system to a screen and control devices.

The 4000 card isnt a replacement for either the 4800 or 285 – it replaces the 3800. So it is technically faster than the card it replaces, but unfortunately Apple/NVidia/PNY chose not to qualify the 5000 card for Mac.
4800 is still the fastest individual available card for Resolve on Mac, unless, as you suggest, you install 2 x 4000 cards which I belive will be faster.

There are quite a few Ola 🙂
Not least Nordisk Shortcuts in Oslo who run a linux R4 system
We can provide one on one training with industry pros but this requires you to have a system.
Alternatively we will soon be announcing our plans for training courses here in the UK, please visit https://jigsaw24.com/davinci and register your interest

A number of the larger companies running resolve use remote grading between offices in London and New York. Works a treat 🙂

“Ships: 1-2 months”
Is that what you call ‘available’ ?
Bit like coming on to a girl in a bar and saying you’re in a relationship but you’ll be available in 1-2 months 😉

This card isnt available yet, as far as I’m aware it was shown on the Apple store in a few regions by mistake
We’re expecting it in the next few weeks
Should be Resolve supported but we won’t know that for sure before the guys in Singapore get hold of one for testing.
Performance should be similar to the FX4800, but bare in mind the 4000 card is a replacement for the 3800 – not the 4800 or the 285

Support for most 3rd party gear is also down to the manufacturer of that product. Not just the guys at DaVinci.
AJA and AVID would need to agree and write the drivers for support to be done, so maybe email them too? 🙂

I was doing some demos and workflow tests with a client last week and we came up with the following workaround for EDLs working with footage that doesnt provide the information required for a good EDL workflow:
This workaround tricks Resolve into thinking that the clip name is the reel name by retrieving the clip name from comments and using that.
Therefore
In the conform page you can set a string for Resolve to retrieve a reel number from the file path.
By setting this to the clip name itself, you can trick resolve into thinking that the reel number is the clip name. This only trips up if you have multiple clips with the same file name (which you shouldn’t unless the footage has come from two separate cameras that are in sync with each other.)
I believe the string was something along the lines of */%R.*
Give that a try and let me know how you get on.
