Friday Off-Topic Video: Conan vs. Apple "Final Cut Pro X"
It's Friday, and I have one off-topic tech-related video recommendation as we leave the work week. Apple recently released their "new version" of their flagship "Final Cut Pro" video editing software, and the reaction from their user base has been, shall we say, mixed. Seems that Apple completely redesigned and (some would say) "dumbed down" the program, even burning backwards compatibility in the process. This controversy even made it to late night TV, with Conan O'Brien's video crew creating a clip expressing their strong, uh, "support" for the new release. I can't recall any time in the past that a mainstream personal computer application (in either the Microsoft or Apple ecosystems) has broken through to comedy routines at this level. Have a good weekend, all.
