[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1625116, member: 307555"] I too am a professional video editor plus a whole host of other hats. I use the Adobe suite of products holding on to the CS6 platform .... for now. I agree whole heartedly with what joema said ... and I am glad he typed all that instead of me! The only thing I would add to that is my biggest gripe ... Windows constant updates to the OS. I can't name the number of times I get to work and have to wait for updates to install. I have turned off automatic update and have "notify me only" set up, but for some reason that does not always happen. If I have to reinstall Windows (and with the people I work with that happens!) or do a new install on a new computer, it takes days to get all the hundreds of updates installed. I have not gone to Windows 8 - hate it. I am testing Windows 10 and I like it a lot. That said, I still see the constant updates as an issue. And before someone jumps in to tell me it is because of so many computer platforms, I know that. But there are times I am on a deadline and I lose an hour of work waiting on updates. With an OS X reinstall it simply involves downloading the one in the app store and it will have all the current updates. I am on my way to work today - on my day off - to fix an issue on my main Windows editor. Since two days ago it has developed a whole host of issues one of which involves not recognizing my HD camera on a USB port. Could be hardware, could be OS, could be a bad update...... hi ** hi ** it's off to troubleshoot I go! My back up editor - a macbook pro - is now my main editor. And that is why I love Apple.
