Would be nice to have one of those bad boys.
They are pricey too...
I want my studio at home...and don't want to spend a fortune :)
From what I remember the smoke was loud, and took major space.I Never got to use Flame and I worked for Discreet, trained on Edit and Combustion, till they cut Edit out production , but then we discovered Final Cut and Shake, Final Cut was still a toy and marketed for consumers but we saw the potential it had, good thing we stuck with it :)
Some Massive amounts of Ram a well configured system, and a good workflow, I can keep my speeds pretty high.
Plus in Ft. Lauderdale there is not as much demand in production so an investment in a system of that caliber might not be wise, Final Cut, AE, Shake, Cinema 4D have done a good job at keeping clients happy, but I have been seeing Ft. Lauderdale start getting some attention so who knows... :)
P.S. The Chris Landreth Presentation was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! if anyone gets a chance to meet him or see one of his presentations I highly recomend it.
