Sounds about right, I've been working with FCE4 on a 2GB MBP, and it's been
taking 2
hours to render 8 minutes of footage. It's to be expected. That said, I've been
very happy
with the results!

Rendering drives me nuts on Final Cut. I use footage from multiple
sources and premiere or sony vegas can accept it.
It seems that Final Cut has a closed system, and is designed not to be
able to use imported clips from or to multiple platforms. When are
they going to open up?
Good luck!

I'll add a few things that probably arent too important but I'll say
em anyway...
Yes the new 17 is 1920 res, but unlike the 15 it is still available
in a matte version as wel as glossy. To be honest 17 is a bit small
for that res anyway. There are some nicely priced 22 and 24 monitors
that can

One more thing to considernis off site archives as well.
Have a friend store your old drives and you store old drives for a
friend. That way you have backups physically in another location in
case of a disaster.

Also, it's important to consider the type of storage. If you live in
a major western city, you'd be crazy not to also backup onto optical
disks and bury them at 4-5 feet, so that your data can survive the
electromagnetic pulse that follows a nuclear explosion.

I've had 3 Lacie power supplies fail (overheated I think) but not the
actual drive mechanism itself. I just ordered replacement power
supplies. Oh, these Lacie's run all the time, tons of read/writes, and
they've done fairly well.

Argh. My kingdom for the perfect harddrive.
I had had no problem with Lacie¹s until this 1TB beast. It hasn¹t died, but
crashes my Finder all the time. Google searches showed that Lacie¹s cause
many crashes. Not good. I keep it off till I do a major backup, then turn it
off immediately after. I
Yeah, hard drives. Over the years I've lost a pretty good amount of
things. A couple of weeks ago I had FCP just randomly freeze while
capturing video and it messed my drive up. I had to use the special
scavenge mode in Disk Warrior to fix it. So now I have a NewerTech

I use a MacBook Pro for all of my editing. But I'll soon be upgrading
to a MacPro tower. My MBP is a couple of years old but still reliably
handles Final Cut Pro and my HD footage. It's not the fastest of the
bunch, but it does its job. A brand new MBP should be fine, so long as
you don't need to

Oh, what size should I get. I have a 17 inch PC laptop. It¹s pretty big and
heavy and though I love the screen size, portability is lost. So
My version has the Santa Rosa and LED screen from 8 mos ago. It's
hands down the most solid computer I've ever owned. I usually have
most of the Adobe Suite and FCP open all at the same time. 4 gigs of
RAM helps. I would suggest it to anyone.

Ive got the previous generation macbook pro 2.4ghz. From what Ive read, the new
ones
are better for battery life heat, but not necessarily performance. (Less L2
cache on the
CPU could be the reason for that).
I dont think you'll see a noticable difference in performance between the 2.4

Thanks Steve David,
I'm currently using a g4 12 Mac pro laptop, I forgot the actually
name... and a g4 iBook.
I'll be cutting high motion video, not HD yet, perhaps in the future,
but HIGH motion. I'm looking to create some instructional DVDs and
bump up the quality of our online show
love it bah! long live the glorious PC and Windows down with the
evil cult of Mac, did you know that it's all those mac people who
are creating all the computer viris's? And they are also responable
for global warming, and they snore alot and have bad breath!

I have a 2 yr old 2GHz, 2GB ram, 128MB video card, first revision MBP
and I use it every day for editing HD video. I love it. I would love
to have a new MacPro but I don't want to sacrifice portability and I
can't afford one as a second machine. I'll probably keep this one
another year and wait
Ahh theres such a lovely performance boost between the G4 and these
Intel Dualcore CPU's so you should be pleased with how the new machine
performs :)
I dont think the extra graphics RAM will do much for you, would give
slightly better performance in a few things, eg Apple Motion, but
better CPU,
