The $2999 model goes from 4 Xeon CPU cores to 6, and from dual AMD G300 GPUs to dual G500 GPUs. The $3999 model goes from 6 CPU cores to 8, and from dual D500 GPUs to dual D800 GPUs. Unfortunately neither USB-C nor Thunderbolt 3.

A German colleague had a pretty nice idea a while back. I say Apple hires him. 😛

Though I don’t get what the 4x Tbo 2 ports are all about… that clearly is not likely to happen.

[Larry Watts] “since I don’t have the horsepower to edit in 4K”

What machine are we talking about here? Because I’ve even edited (optimized) 4K on a Mac Mini before with no issues.

[Larry Watts] “assuming the best step is to convert 4K to HD before editing”

No. Definitely not. As Noah said, a proxy workflow is what you’ll want to look into. A simple one-click solution with Final Cut Pro X. No mucking about with external transcodes needed.

Is it me, or is this not (more or less) the exact same “pun” they brought something around 2003? Guess they’re running out of stuff.

And double ironic considering the REAL news and various comments above. ????

[Simon Ubsdell] “While this is true for changing the font…”

Which is what it is I took it he’s talking about, yes.

[Tony West] “If you are doing a film like that now in .3 I would be surprised if that was still in issue.”

There is none whatsoever, no.

Illegible and unintelligible. As always.

[Jeff Markgraf] “dropping clips in to a Premiere timeline via the method described, while achieving superficially similar results in terms of avoiding overwriting or clip collisions, is not conceptually or practically equivalent to connecting clips in FCPX. At all.”

+1
Hear hear (on all counts btw).
Just as I said. Neither conceptually nor practically.

Yeah, that last one is especially good and really nails it. ☺

So you agree. Good for you. Then that’s settled. ????????

[Oliver Peters] “This is incorrect. In Premiere, if I have clips on V1 and V2 and I insert something in the middle of the V1 clip, it splits both the V1 and V2 clips and slides them both to the right, as well as everything else that follows.”

Well I sure hope for the sake of your edit, that you don’t have any unlinked audio lingering around that insert that doesn’t need useless splitting! Or imagine making the unfortunate mistake of dragging it to the timeline for said insert (with ⌥⌘) and have spotted audio somewhere behind that point. Oopsy… be sure to bill those extra hours.

Once again, apples and oranges imho.
