My experience has been closer to Chris Harlan's than Chris Kenny's.

Whenever I run into someone (either online or in the real world) that is optimistic or interested w/FCP X I'm initially taken back because it happens so infrequently. Maybe it's because lots of the work that I do isn't, or doesn't appear to be, conducive to FCPX's workflow so maybe it's just that I don't swim in the circles that even see FCPX as a possibility. I don't know really.

W/o knowing more details about the SCRI numbers it's hard to know what they really mean. How many people are using FCPX day in and day out and how many played w/it for a few hours and haven't touched it sense? I mean, last year Adobe claimed some huge number of PPro installs (more than FCP classic) but how many of those are people actually using PPro vs PPro just came along for the ride in the CS purchase?

A few years ago a SCRI study showed FCP w/like 52% of the NLE market and Avid w/22% while an ACE survey from the same period showed like 80% of ACE members used Avid and 20% used FCP. W/o having more granular data (data that reflects your market, interests, workflows, and needs) the numbers aren't very useful in creating an accurate picture of what's going w/in all the niches that make up post production.
