Thanks David
I do use Adobe software (DW, PS & AE) frequently but on a different machine to my Avid - I keep my Avid PC solely for MC, Sorenson, Avid FX, Boris, by Sonic and SmartSound, and when I upgrade my machine I'll probably put my ProTools LE on it too. I only have Windows background at present...although, I'm still using XP and switching to Vista or W7 can't be that different from jumping to OSX?
However, I though it was interesting how in this recent Avid promotional video 'Robin Buday - Story of a switcher' (at
http://www.avid.com/mediacomposer4/index.asp) the studio they've shot Robin in (which I'd say is obviously a video set and not his own studio), uses a MacPro. This could just be 'cause they look sexy and shiny but Avid are clearly suggesting 'This is how the pro's do it'.
Any pro editors out there wanna fight Apple's corner? I guess I'm hoping someone will...
