Re: DaVinci Resolve 8.1 -- now with FCPXML roundtrip support

"When I say network, I don't mean connecting to the Internet, I mean our shared storage network which is a mixture of fibre and Ethernet that has Macs, Windows, and a Linux box attached to it, all for video reasons."

I think you're describing what most of us (probably) think of as IT functions and responsibilities. What I'm getting at (and I think this may have been Herb's point as well), is that OS choice is much less of an issue for folks with more narrowly defined jobs/roles (editor, motion graphics artist, VFX artist, etc.). If I'm spending more time working in Windows (for example) than After Effects or Premiere, then yes, there is something wrong with my workflow. I think this is probably true for anyone doing creative work in post-production.

Thanks,
