Hello,
Our company has a couple of laptops with Avid XPress Pro installed, and we are considering adding Premiere Pro on the same laptops. Mainly because one of our employees is more comfortable with PP. Does anyone have both applications installed on the same laptop? Any issues/problems?

I have used Xpress Pro 4.x to 5.x and now Media Composer with Premiere Pro to PP CS3 without any problems, though I really only use Premiere infrequently. I just can't use them at the same time for capture, Avid tends to win the fight for the 1394 connection.

Thanks for your replies!
I'm guessing capture won't be an issue, since we shoot on Panasonic P2 cards. And I would never use Avid and PP at the same time, it would be either or. Thanks again!
