Aw, he's no fun, he fell right over.
Unless you become as little children, there's no way you will believe this crap.

I believe you do not have the proper authorization for that system. Please be a good fellow and ship it to the following address...

Nice!
My only cool thing this week was managing to snag a brand new, unopened copt of Final Cut Studio 2 (Academic version... I am a student) for 199.99.
From what I can tell, either way, you're screwed. Bad people are punished by society's laws, and good people are punished by Murphy's Law.

Re: New HD edit system
Man this system rocks.... I just installed VMware and Vista and it is unbelievably cool how fast it runs. Not that I will be in Windows much, but I am using this as a test bed for what my boss and I want to get for General Session "show" packs; which will basically be 2 MacPro's and a mini (the mini will just be for a logo go to slide).
The show packs will not be spec as high end as this one though.
I'd say this box is a good 10x as fast as the old edit system which was a Dual 2 Ghz G5.
