Re: Avid and Final Cut on same system
by Michael Hancock on Feb 1, 2008 at 2:22:00 am

You can install Avid and FCP on the same drive, but I wouldn't recommend it. The potential for conflict will always be there, and the upgrade paths for both programs vary wildy.

For example, Avid isn't supported on Leopard right now. If you plan on running FCP under Leopard, create a new partition on your drive and install Tiger on it. If you plan on keeping your Quicktime updated (bad idea right now!) install Avid on a seperate partition--I'm sure you know that Avid supports specific versions of quicktime, and if update too far Avid stops working. Such is life.

To be completely safe, and if you only want to do this once, seperate hard drives and dual boot, or partition your main drive and dual boot.

Michael.
