Hi Guys!!
I knew that MacPro is really gorgeous & powerfull enough to edit DV / Beta using Final Cut. N its pretty fast too with 3D rendering & Motion FX. I have been experience working on it for a year plus.
But now i just having an idea to get 1 4 my self ( purpose= doing video editing + motion fx). Just confuse wether to get an MacPro or Macbook Pro for me.. Im just considering the price and machines speed & lifetime. In the aspect of pricing i feel i can get MacBook Pro which is stylish & just cost me around RM10,.+++. But 4 MacPro is going to be RM9999 which didnt yet include LCD.
But finally is it using FinalCut,AfterFX... on MacPro have same capability to do on Macbook Pro? For an example can i edit for broadcast or film using my Macbook Pro?
If the answer is yes im planning to get a Macbook Pro & another 24" LCD for dual screen purpose where i feel the extra point is its portable & i can do my work at any place.
Help me out guys....
Pls..
Since the MacPro has hardly been out for six months it's quite suprising that you've been using it for a "year plus". My assumption would be that you're confusing the G5 with the MacPro and that is your yardstick for comparison.I knew that MacPro is really gorgeous & powerfull enough to edit DV / Beta using Final Cut.

In terms of raw speed for encoding digital video, the G5 desktop would still be faster than the MacBookPro. The MacPro obviously with the Dual-Xenon Quad-core would be in a different ballpark. Look up the benchies at BareFeats for this.
The advantage of the MacBookPro is portability. If you do your job on the move and require to get your processing done out of the office: then get the portable. If time is money: the MacPro. Factor in the need for storage space (Four SATA 3.5 drives which are user-swappable in the MacPro) versus the really small storage space available to you on the MBP. Rough rule of thumb: 10 mins of video equals 1 gig HD space. You do the math.
