Re: After a year has perception of FCPX changed?

[Tim Wilson] "....but the overwhelming majority of it had zeeeerooooo to do with bullet-point features, and everything to do with the bullet they felt had just been put in their heads, before they even KNEW about the missing features."

I absolutely agree with this assessment.

The largest factor in the "horror" that surrounded the release of X was the emotional fallout.

To me the singular part of this assessment is the archly perceptive line "with the bullet they felt had just been put in their heads."

It speaks of primal fear, confusion and uncertainty. Which matter. But what a thing "is" and how you "feel" about that thing have always been two separate things.

That a guy "hates" or "loves" Chevys over Fords has always been a part of car culture. But seldom has much to do with the actual performance of the machines. It's mostly a complex and emotional thing.

And so it is with X to this day.
