Ok.
After some speed reading:
1) He isn't describing ama workflow trouble, but a series of bugs that
remotely have to do with AMA.
2) He isn't really smart to jump in like that and expect things to work the
way he imagined it.
IM(not so)HO, Nothing ever works as a expected (and yes, that goes for my
work as well!)
3) He isn't really pragmatic (well, that is a guess, i take it he met his
deadlines.)
Now it does make a nice read, but really, diving head first into shallow
water isnt the brightest idea.
And to get back on the original statement, the way i've read it, in his
opinion Avid still beats the competition.
(but again, i was speedreading, so i could have missed the point...)
