My friend said that he finally had to switch to PC
because money had poured into AVID(I gather from Microsoft) to have them
produce programs for three years before updating their Mac programs. He said
that he had "been forced" out of using Mac because of this.
He says that because of this "money-lobbying", AVID
for Macs will always be three years behind, that Mac users will always be
playing catch-up. At the meeting three months ago, they took a survey of those
present and about 40% were "still using Macs".

LOL, Avid started on the Mac. I went to a Avid
training class around
1991.
Final Cut Pro has been competing and
taking away customers from Avid
recently. The film editor Walter
Murch ("Apocalypse Now", "The
Godfather II", "The Conversation", "The
Engligh Patient", etc.) has
been using Final Cut Pro for editing motion
pictures since 2003 on
"Cold Mountain".
