[Eric Susch] "Now Apple wants to throw that all away and start over?"

I don't see it that way at all. Many of the features they added (at the expense of others we need, for now at least) are ones editors have been asking for for years and many of those features, like 64-bit, background rendering, GPU acceleration, are at the foundation of a product and are best added with a clean slate. Just ask Adobe. This doesn't mean they are throwing away the basics but you have to start somewhere then add those little guys back in. With the outcry from editors for a new version they seemed to have caved for once and released this one too soon. Maybe they hoped editors would look at their past (poor product launches but great and visionary updates) and realize how amazing the future could be with this new foundation.
