    Get AE for Mac no question. AE Mac has a huge installed base unlike Premiere so you won't see Adobe passing up the upgrade opportunities there at all.



    In fact at Macromedia's 2005 even that launched Flash they had an Adobe manager showing up just a bit of AE 7 running in Beta on a Mac.

    Wasn't there something about Adobe being pissed because of Apple's Motion software treading on After Effects' toes? But if they're running beta 7, i guess i'm wrong.... \

    They may have been pissed, but when they saw that Motion didn't really hurt After Effects as much as they anticipated.. they suddenly felt better.

    Mac AE users have a lot more pull than Mac Premiere users. Many have plugins that cost more than AE itself or are Mac only I believe.



    I really like Apple's focus on Digital Video so I can honestly say you'll be ahead of the curve with using Macs for video.
