Clam Down...Apple says missing features coming soon.

I am sorry that all the "pros" are over reacting to the release of FCPX. Instead of being civil they have been quite rude and dumb. If all you guys clam down a second and read the news you would know that almost every single missing pro feature for FCPX will become availible via update rather soon. Apple and several news outlets have made this very clear. SDI, EDL, XML. All those features are coming very soon. Maybe they should not have released it so soon, for that they might deserve a bit of scorn, but the stuid ranting needs to stop. You people are supposed to be professionals and you are acting like children.

Complain away as much as you want. Demand the features we need. But try doing so in a way that doesn't make you come off looking like and a@@.

That is not true... Apple has not even remotely claimed a timeline like that. Have you actually read their official response?

Because you are psychic?

This has been in development for years to get to the point that it is in, and you think that if they had waited a month it could have all the missing features magically in it, and that they wouldn't have just waited?

Really?

OK.

I thought I loved Apple... and I've been accused of being a fanboi in the past..... but you, my friend, take the fanboi first prize.

Actually, Final Cut is just a sliver of the revenue that Apple takes in. It's more of a prestige product and so Apple is more than willing to throw editing professionals under the bus since everything is about iOS now.

Guys, stop listening and responding to NightNinjaPDX...he's just a grad student with nothing better to do. He has no answers, experience in this subject, or credibility to back him up.
