Gary, >> Are you guys going to on-line or outputting at AVR26? We're doing a fair amount of corporate work that finishes on a 1000 at AVR26. I'm waiting for 27, personally — still too many JPEG artifacts on some material at 26. >> My mac has 28MB RAM and Avid is reccommending upgrades to at least >> 36MB. What are you guys using w/5.2 and are you having problems? We have two Avids, an 800 and a 1000. The 800 only has 28MB; the 1000 has 44MB, which is what they're shipping now with new systems (ever since 5.2 started shipping). There are little bugs here and there, but mostly the only frustration is dealing with the way some commands moved around in 5.2 — things just aren't where you expect them to be sometimes. We'll get used to it just in time for the next revision. 😉 Plus there are things that need to be made more robust, like the title tool. >> Tell Allison I hope the hot spot isn't still the Rusty Scupper. It's still around, but I've always found it priced higher than necessary for what you get. Pete
