Question still is why didn't Apple focus group FCPX BEFORE it was released instead of pushing out something that would lose customers and then spend time, effort and $ to woo them back.
Also, telling me I can use the MBPro Retina with a crappy 1GB video card in it for professional use, especially in HD video, is a joke.
Nice to see that you can't even grasp the most basic concept... but at the same time drive my point home perfectly. Bravo.

LOL!! You clearly have ZERO clue what you're going on about. Ouch.
The only thing that these posts prove is that self-proclaiming "pros" are whiny, blathering idiots with small genitalia that actually think that a MACHINE defines their level of "pro".
Audio sync clips into multi angle clip. If you use multiple DSLRs, it's great. Just one? Thanks for making it easy. ;-)
It's fast and efficient, and the magnet timeline is a bless.
Do you have a single good reason why to use Premiere instead of Avid?
If you want a traditional and robust editor, Avid is the way to go!
Use whatever will get the job done. Learn all of the software that you can get your hands on. To the "pros," don't discount the new users that this kind of software is targeted for. And to the new guys/gals, don't blindly assume something that works well for your setup can be easily applied to the big post houses/studios and editors with a large backlog of experience.
Eh, not so concerned about that. If you've got more reasons, please feel free to let me know what I'm missing out on.
What can FCP 7, Avid, or Premiere do that the current FCP X can't ?
Also, why would clients bring you FCP X projects if your post production studio doesn't use FCP X ? I'm assuming your clients would know in advance what you support and would submit a project accordingly.
The professional community (and Im one of the professionals) is afraid of change mostly.
It's not really good news in the sense that Apple is willing to push marketing dollars to draw the prosumer rather than spend those same dollars on creating better products for prosumers.
Can FCP X have multiple editors working on the same project on a shared storage network? (I don't know the answer to that one so it is an honest question.)
I'm running FCPX 10.0.7 on an 8-Core 2.8Ghz Mac Pro from 2008.
I love FCPX. I love the layout, the scheme, the features and the direction...
but not the performance.
but for me it really is super fast, and very powerfull. People who call it iMovie Pro do not have a clue what they are talking about
You're using a five-year-old computer to edit video? Tell me again how you are having performance issues.
they're too busy making new ipads and iphones every 8-12 months to update software or computers lolz.
Agreed it shouldn't have taken this long...and we see how Dell and HP are doing. There isn't a really big market for these machines anymore to make an industry off of.
Now, Apple on the other hand could always 'support' the Pro line now off the iOS behemoth and it wouldn't hurt them at all nor would they lose money.
