Re: The SuperApp? A current Smoke user's take...

[Alan Okey] "Autodesk is not currently porting Smoke"

Key word = "currently".

If MacPro gets officially EOLed without a replacement, that may change - especially if the iMacs are lacking in real world performance during the beta phase, and sales are lack-luster in the fall.

Another thing to remember is that the new Smoke can work in Uncompressed 444 RGB DPX, or it can work in ProRes renders. So they'd also need to find a Windows compatible codec, etc...

And like I said, they have their hands full just doing the new UI on Mac and getting that to work with existing known OS and hardware...
