I’m on FCS2, and just hadn’t got around to getting FCS3. I would be interested in it.

[Bill Davis] “Fine.
Here’s my disclosure.
I have NO financial relationships with ANY company or product in place here.”
Bill,
I know we have a difference of views on X, but never for a moment was I thinking this was something you were doing.
I hope you were just joking around.Actually, I don’t want to accuse anyone of anything. I think there are some passionate people out there that are lucky enough to get some comps, toys, long term demos or a few bucks that hadn’t really thought about this.

[Jerry Hofmann] “Bill get used to Apple being silent.”
Yeah, because that is exactly what they’ve trained their fans to do. This is simply rewarding bad behavior, and wouldn’t be tolerated by any other company.

[Matt Callac] “Does apple’s current behavior significantly affect the shelf life of the goods you’ve purchased from them?”
I don’t know why this is so hard to understand.
Yes. And for the reasons I just stated, and more.Actually I do know why this is so hard for you to understand, but I’m trying to use some decorum.

[Phillip Hullquist] “You are overreacting a bit as to the state of the editing business. Just because the software is getting easier to use does not mean the industry is somehow destroyed.”
This is your future. From the LA Craigs:

[Neil Hurwitz] “I’m sure it will
improve over time and don’t forget that most here don’t have a
clue what a CMX 3600 was and the next generation gunning for your
work won’t have a clue what FCP was, But they will sure know how to
sing with FCPX.”Well, while they are singing with iMovie Pro, they are not going to get my day rate for running the CMX, or anything close.

[Chuck Pullen] “That sounds like another case of welding the battery into case so you need to buy a new cell phone… I don’t mean to be critical, but I really don’t get why you guys put up with this stuff from Mac?”
I don’t know why we put up with it either, and have repeatedly mentioned not rewarding bad behavior.

[Bob Woodhead] “”I really like Sony Vegas Pro 10 and would have bought it instead of FCP if it was on mac”
Says all I need to know about Mr. Couch’s opinions…..”
In some respects I agree with you.
But you have to remember he said he was primarily a compositor, and not an editor.Scott Sheriff
