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.

    give me a break

    "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."

    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!

    hi

    i can finally post.

    nice

    Apple's winning entertainment awards, but I'd like to see some hardware (not just design) accolades, you know? Best/fastest CPU at the best price.

    Apple wins the "Fugly"

    Apple Computer, in an ironic turn of events, has won the "Fugly" award, for their new G4 desktop towers. As explained by Don King: "The Fugly award is presented to those companies in the technology industry whose creations are f**kin ugly. It was originally named after someone who saw my hair." "I'm honored that Apple has recieved this award," explained Steve Jobs, head of Apple Computer. "You know it's funny too: all we did was take the existing G4 desktop, take a fat drill, and punch a bunch of random holes in it. I guess that's all that's needed nowadays to make something Fugly."

    Oh give it a rest, trolls

    Would you trolls just knock it off? Does it make yourself feel like less of a loser to put down others?

    Last month, a Dual-1GHz Mac costed $3299. This month, a PowerMac of the same speed with extra drive bays, a bigger hard disk, and a better video card costs $2499.

    I don't understand what your problem is with this. Oh, let me guess, you don't have big huge MHz specs to brag to your buddies? Awww, poor babies. Keep crying then, while I get my work done on my 6 month old PowerMac. Funny, it still does the same tasks very well, just as when I bought it.

    Grow up.

    here

    Pinnacle, Avid, Media 100, and Matrox are some previous winners. No, Microsoft is not in there.

    re: fugly

    the new PM is much improved and, while the QS was the pinnacle of tower elegance, the new Pm is far from ugly. See one IN PERSON, the look a lot better than they do on Apple's page.

    re: fugly

    They aren't my favorites, but they are far from "fugly."

    Let's see YOUR designs? Also you are clearly a racist.
