OK Avid, Christmas, Hanukkah and New Years are over. Everyone must be
back in the offices. How about it?
Or:
Well it appears that all the well-meaning gossip about Avid actually
making a statement on DS was not based in fact but just Gossip. At this
time I would say that they will hold off until February some time and
then try to roll the release of v 8.0 into the NAB announcements. NG as
far as long range planning for system owners.
Anyone that has DS systems in major markets should perhaps consider
earning their investments out of the gear ASAP. If Avid lets DS die via
attrition or by outright abandonment it will leave lots of system owners
high and dry with those "Old, discontinued, DS systems".
Clients are sensitive to what system their post facilities have. Perhaps
they are a bit naive about it but who wants to edit on a system that is
no longer marketed? [If indeed that happens to become the case].
Happy New Year Anyway!

Don't break a sweat? Are you kidding?
When Avid wants to kill the platform, they will; one way or another.
