Re: [Avid-L2] Avid Everywhere

 

I'd argue that only a moron would not know the details of buying into a finishing system.

If you don't do your research and you get screwed then you kind of deserve it.

I wasn't arguing that point.  They totally effed up the FCPX release.  Point was when they EOLed FCP7, it was EOLed! No question about it.  For better or worse.  


I think it is total BS that Avid still has DS on the shelves after saying, "by the way, we don't sell enough of these so we are killing it, but we still would like to make some cash off of you for the next three weeks...".  Not one notice on the site (that I can find) saying "this product will no longer be available on 10/1 and will no longer be supported in 12 months".  Real honest.

As much shit as Apple got when EOLing FCP7, they did it and it was off the shelves immediately.

Seriously Scott?  Apple took heat *for* yanking FCP 7 from the shelves abruptly and not having a transition period to FCPX.

Agreed.  I don't need Avid to be everywhere.  Just do a focus on a couple things and do the really really well.


Funny on the DS query. Even funnier that DS is STILL being sold on the Avid web site...seriously guys?  You would actually sell a dead product 3 weeks before its EOL?  As much shit as Apple got when EOLing FCP7, they did it and it was off the shelves immediately.

It means no change other than we've invented a new catchphrase. 

 I went to the stand, asked where the DS pod was then walked off as the girl went 'to ask someone'. There is nothing new on their stand
