I’d agree that’s a good guess given the “upgrade”. Something internally is definitely off or they are just post postponing the death notice. I do hope it’s the former – just very late on delivery on new form factor, ideally not solely Xeon based but either Sandy Bridge or Ivy Bridge EP. Ivy Bridge EP would make sense for a sometime in 2013 date that the rumors are floating.


Maybe it’s a MacX e.g. FCPX except hardware. Not a full power tower workstation rig but something more than an iMac with a couple of internal slots, bays. Some re-imaging of the mATX form factor perhaps?

A film is – or should be – more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.
