Discuss the new announcements in our Apple Silicon forum
Oh goody!
I've been waiting for this since it was announced. If it's as much of an improvement over 1.5 as FCP 4 was over FCP 3 then I'm going to be in heaven! Already went to the Apple Store (for education) and placed my order.
Now if the creative juices would start flowing I would be set. I was originally going to make a wakeboard/motocross video with my GL2, FCP and DVDSP, but I sold my motorcycle and haven't been able to wakeboard much this season. And when I do get to go to the lake, I'm scared of getting to close to the water with my camera. I want a waterproof housing, but man, have you priced those things!?
Oh well, when the juices DO start flowing I'll be all set on the computer/software side.

I can't afford it, either. I'd really like FCP4, but at least there is a deal going on with FCE which might not be so bad...It sucks being a broke student! But yay, it's always great to know Apple is hard at work improving their already great products...It gives me a warm feeling in my stomach

Alas, I am also amongst the poor. I watched a bit of a demo at Macworld and asked the guy demonstrating some questions though of course what I REALLY wanted to do was shove him off the G5 and play with the software. Will have to visit old professor who I know will have it to mess around. MWA-HA-HA-HA!! Mmmmm....new Apple software...

I'm just glad I read through that Unix for Dummies book the other day, otherwise I wouldn't have known what he had said!

Re: Way overpriced
Oo! oo! I love these:
Oh yeah? Well, I don't even use a computer, I just whistle at my phone! (And interpret the noises I get back real-time in my head)
edit: Oh, we weren't talking about getting on the Internet, were we? Editting DVDs... well, to do that I just use a really really tiny needle!

Bzzzzzzztpffffft...
Er...those aren't 'noises', x-virge...it's the Mothership.
And we want our 'Sapien-styled' all-over body-suit back, pronto.
And don't forget; it'd better not have any smears on it like the last one or you'll be billed for cleaning.
Over.

I remember those days. Hasn't changed much either. I'm still broke even though I'm employed. Having 5 month old twins can do that to you.

Bought a copy from Dr. Raw Stock, saved a hundred bucks. Can't wait to use it. I think I can figure out how to use this. (also watched the tours on Apple's website) but I actually understand how it works. The earlier versions were so confusing. Great to REALLY author DVDs. I am really getting tired of iDVD.

Agreed Jeff. Wow, that should be a big issue. I have a 60GB hard drive in my TiBook and partionioned it. After the FCP4 install and Soundtrack Library (I didn't even both with the LiveType Library) I only have about 16GB on my System Drive. That is terrible. Now, I would have to repartion my whole hard drive so I have more room on my system drive. And I need the other "media" partion to have the most room as it is my media drive containing the video, render files, etc. I guess Apple has to acknowledge that for PowerBook users, hard drives are not that big, not that cheap, and not that easy to replace. There is the option of the FW Drive but its just not as efficient.
