[Jeremy Garchow] "Most everything hardware wise is cross platform, and you can even by Episode to encode ProRes on Windows these days."

Unfortunately, you can only encode ProRes on Windows if you are running Episode Engine on Windows Server 2008. Apple has so far declined to license ProRes for desktop-based encoders on Windows.

If you're not a facility with other needs that Telestream's high-end solutions fill, but you do want to run Windows and deliver ProRes, it's a lot cheaper to buy a Mac that does nothing but encode ProRes.
