Apple-Period is unatural? the Apple key is the same as the "alt" key.. which is right next to the period key. How is that unatural? | |

Murdock_rock: Sorry to bust your balls but for pro video, avid has been available for PC for a long time. Probably more people run it on apple systems but I'm sure there are plenty who run it on PC's. Also I know some broadcast places use vegas for editing (also what I am using now)... Final cut has only been used for professional stuff recently. Update » nothingnopenope wrote on Mon Nov 13, 2006 @ 5:54pm Avids high end finshing/mastering systems are all windows based BTW |

I can vouch for that since I have confirmed that all video montage/editing is done on PC at my workplace(TV station). | |

@ scotty...
i mentioned avid a few times in this thread.... and it costs substantialy more to set up an avid studio than to set up a final cut studio. i was under the impression that this argument was over whether the extra cost is necissary? | |

moondancer - if your tv station uses avid - thats great as avid is the best video software for production.
final cut pro is amazing for editing as well..it just depends what a company is comfortable with. I worked on pcs in small companies because its cheaper - and can still do the trick - however I have taken longer to complete assignments because the pc is a billion times slower than a mac and u definately cannot run 3 different big softwares on a pc and still have it go fast. When it comes to designing/video - yes I prefer the mac. But when it comes to everything else I prefer the pc. End of story. | |

You're not allowed to prefer mac's because they're useless toys that can't really do anything! | |

murdock_rock: my point is that the PCs are still used quite a bit for video work. But an avid workstation is not the same as running a cracked version of adobe premier on a generic home PC. You generally wouldn't be using the workstation for anything besides video work so it would have limited exposure to the virus/adware problem.
I think the mac platform is a good one but they are still very very expensive. You could build a very good workstation PC for less than 2000$, while apple workstations (mac pro's) start at something like 2500. The high end Imacs would be plenty fast for doing a lot of work but they have little expansion possibilities besides usb/firewire. That's one thing that has kept me from switching. |

Scott, I managed to install OSX on one of my low end PCs, the only reason I'm not using it is because i don't have any drivers for my ATI card in it. I bet you could build a super cheapass pc box and shove OSX on it (making sure that your hardware is acceptable). | |

I wouldn't want to depend on a hacked version of an operating system to get work done... |

@ scotty...
i never said they couldn't... you can easy set up an avid station on a p.c. but it cost alot more to set up than a mac does and if you use windows your software is limited. and neo... i'm interested in knowing the specs of you cracked osx p.c. and how its running... some ppl i know have tried this too but the system lagged like a bitch. | |
