Final Cut Pro, Apple's professional video and film editing software, will be honored with a 2002 Primetime Emmy Engineering Award for its "impact on the television industry by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences tomorrow at the Goldenson Theatre in Hollywood." Apple's Steve Jobs is quoted in a press release as saying: "Final Cut Pro has democratized professional video editing by bringing the capabilities of a $50,000 editing bay to everyone for under $1,000. We are honored and excited to be receiving Apple's second Emmy Award." Apple's first Emmy was awarded in 2001 for the company's invention and popularization of FireWire, which is used almost universally in the film and video production industries.

Go ahead Steve, pat yourself on the back. Now you have some new PowerMacs that no one wants because they aren't any faster. I just hope your professional market sticks in long enough for Apple to correct their performance problems.
I have nothing against the software though, it rules!
