And let me add my 2 cents...According to a trade mag Apples' Jobs reportedly told many at the recent April NAB that about 80 % of pros using computer workstations for video production were Macs !!!!

Again...even I have to wonder why little 'ole MCRE puts out MetaStream for PCs and not Macs....I mean come on now !!!! I am not about to go out and buy PC version of all my graphic software just to get a so called plug and play PC.

As far as 8.? being buggy...well if you work with computers, any computer, better get used to bugs !! Actually its a form of job security !! Scares away the jittery video producer and yields more work $$$ for pros.

I have no more MCRE shares. Sold out in that panic session at tad over $4. Took a major hit to my $$$$ but luckily I had cashed in profits that have left me still on the net plus side. I have sworn off MCRE and for that matter over-the-counter issues.

Just seems to me the Japan crisis, coupled with their weak economy leaves the computer/software market on questionable footing.
