Re: New bundle - RT.X2 with Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 Upgrade
by Harm Millaard on Aug 3, 2007 at 10:41:34 pm

To sum it up, Matrox offers a $ 1.200 board plus the upgrade from PP2 to CS3 @ $ 299 as a deal for only $ 1.500?? Given the track record of Matrox and their lack of support for existing boards, as stated in your message (they stopped supporting the RT.X100) this does not look attractive. IMO AJA and BlackMagic have better options with less compatibility issues, better stability and a more attractive price.

I still have a RT.X100 board somewhere and it is perfect.... as a doorstopper. I never could get Matrox to work decently and as you said yourself it only works on approved systems (well not even then) so you face an additional investment in a new system and know, that when CS4 comes out they will stop support for the RT.X2, which will be superseded by the soon to be announced RT.X3.

It seems like a $ 1.200 investment down the drain.
