As an Apple "fan-boy" (admittedly), I must also chime-in that this FCPX app is a RADICAL step backwards for FCP. I have been using FCP since... well... I think when it first came out. I am NOT a video "Pro", but rather a weekend enthusiast who ha…

Am I finally gonna get my wish and see a next generation of MacPro desktops soon...? Man, I hope so... I have a budget just WAITING to be spent on a new system. Bring it on, Apple... And I dunno... I'm sure this has been discussed ad-nauseam…

Personally, I think the 25-year milestone for that commercial means more to Apple enthusiasts than it does to Apple. In all reality, it's just a commercial. Not something that Apple created, but a means of PROMOTING something Apple created. Is it…

I'll drool when I see the next "big thing" in the Apple Pro area of desktop systems. Until then, I wait patiently and hope for the best. Oh... yeah, and I come here to complain.

Yeah - I guess that's what I'm really hoping for - is that the next generation of Pro towers are a complement to the evolving changes in the operating system. Some sort of architectural changes that allow the hardware and software to be more powerfu…

One *obvious* limitation of my idea is that lack of being able to "hot swap" such hardware. Any data that is in memory or in the processor pipeline would need to be moved or flushed-out safely to the portable device before disconnection, etc... T…
