The new ParentDish: helping raise kids of all ages

Wherefore art thou, Final Cut Server?

Update: Hoist on my own petard! I will be handing in my English Majors of America membership card, as commenters point out that "wherefore" means "why," not "where." The headline should then have been "Wherefore art thou not shipping yet, Final Cut Server?" --MR

A casual glance at the calendar shows that autumn has once again arrived for the Northern Hemisphere, and as the leaves begin to turn and the weather turns colder, it feels like something's missing. Kids back to school? Check. Days getting shorter? Check. Final Cut Server shipped? Uh...

Yes, the product formerly known as artbox (Apple acquired developer Proximity at the end of 2006) was supposed to be shipping to customers "this summer" according to the NAB announcement that eagle-eyed reader Alex pointed out to us. Ain't no summer no more, no how, so for those of us eagerly waiting for a Mac-friendly, fully integrated Final Cut DAM solution at a reasonable price, now begins the period of teeth-grinding frustration.

Is FCS suffering from Leoparditis? Is it just taking longer than expected to bring the artbox code up to Apple standards? Either way, if you're waiting for FCS or have found something else to take its spot, let us know.

Thanks Alex
