The place I work is considering switching to macs and gettting final cut pro. Have any of you worked with it? I have always stayed away from it because I generally despise macs, but I might have to deal with it, as it is not my decision. Anyways how does it stack up to Avid xpress or premier? Any hard facts i can present to my boss to stop the switch?

I cant see any reason to change OS format ... if you already have a Windows system. Changing to Mac will also entail buying new software (utilities, office suite etc etc) and learning the new OS. There is a substantial learning curve especially if you've never used a Mac before. There ia also the issue of networking. Are the editors networked? Video sharing (work-group) is a feature that all the NLE suites are advertising now .. this allows more than one person to work on a given project ... Are your NLE's networked now? If so there are a few (not major) issues related to a hybrid Mac/ Windows network.
As far as one being better than the other though ... it's a matter of personal preference over funtionality ....
Peace
