RE: <<No - Avid is not tied to HDTV especially. It does however need to respond to the need to produce NLEs that work in realtime with HDTV images. As HDTV has significantly more data per frame (is it 16x NTSC ?), that is not a simple task. But it will be done. HDTV will require equipment upgrades across the board as it gains popularity, which is good for Avid when Avid has HDTV-capable product. >> Avid is moving ahead at an astonishing pace. Only 2 or so years ago I was told by engineers at a major network studio in New York that NTSC shows would NEVER air out of a computer in our lifetime. Well, almost every show that I have edited in the last 15 months has gone to air right out of a media composer (after being laid off to tape first of course). And now Avid is heavily into D1 quality uncompressed images. I really think they will figure out the way to Hi Def. And they'll figure it out soon. Only one editor's opinion...... Glad I FINALLY bought at 12 1/2. Tony
