It's only available in the used market so try places like eBay but be prepared to pay ridiculous amounts for it.

Hey Paul.


Amazoncurrently lists FCS – but as Ian said, it's at a very stiff price.


For some time after FCS was discontinued, it was possible to purchase it over the phone from Apple. Although I haven't heard reports of recent purchases, it wouldn't hurt to give a call.


If you're convinced FCPX isn't for you, then you might want to check out Premier Pro, which is similar in design to FCP. Adobe has a 30 day trial and, if it meets your needs, it's possible to get their entire Master Suite via a monthly subscription.


Personally, I like many things about FCPX and use it increasingly, though I'm still much more comfortable with FCP7.


Whatever you do, good luck.


Russ
