My problem is that we, macrumors users except pro users, have told buyers that the iMac and Macbook works fine with FCP. I knew in my heart that if you going to do video, your shooting yourself in the foot with anything else then less then MacBook Pro or Mac Pro.
The iMac isn't a Pro machine, and certainly won't be used in a Pro environment where people are purchasing IO-HDs. They'll be Mac Pro or MacBook Pro all the way.

I'm sure FCS2 will work fine for everything you've done already in FCS1.


I don't get it- the iMac is superior to the MBP in every way...
I'd love for you to point out how, exactly, before I spill my coke while laughing again.
 
There might still be hardware updates in the form of speed bumps... they dont need to have a big announcement just to bump the hardware next Tuesday.

Yea your right. FCS2 should work for them

Better GPU perhaps ? (MBP has clocked down X1600)

There's also people who don't need portability (like me), so the iMac is far better choice..

If you are a pro and do not need portability you get a Mac Pro...

The 24" iMac has a far better GPU than any MBP and all iMacs use faster desktop HDDs as well. If FCS 2 works great on a MBP, it'll work even a bit better on a high end iMac. All you have to do is look at the specs to clearly see that.
 
Its not finished yet. They are currently recapping, and there are still a few minutes left before the 2 hours mark... time for a one last thing perhaps?

Come on, come on... at least say something to suggest the possibility of an update for Logic... soon. 🙄

iMac is a consumer desktop, Macbook Pro is a professional laptop, you aren't comparing the same things.
