Get a grip...
Face it your in a Field that has nothing to do with
'integrity' or for that matter 'honor'.. just use what
you want and stop this back and forth. If you want FCP
then go use FCP. If you want PPro then use PPro.
The only way your going to know if you like PPro or
not is if you do a hands on. So stop all this noise.
I've been using Premiere since 1997 and using FCP
since 2003... They are both good, but I prefer XP over
OSX ( I like XP dialogs..that's me). It dosen't mean
you will... go try them out.
PS. I would buy an AVID over them all if your dealing
with half wit clients who only care about a brand.
Clients come to me for my work not my software.
Good luck & Regards
