I did mention price point, right? Professional video editing workstations can cost 10 times what a Mac does. There are a lot of professionals using Macs with products like Final Cut Pro on very big name movies.

You can do video editing on a PC for far less money (and with for more options) using software that is arguably better than Final Cut Pro (Adobe Premiere being one of them). So in this case, clearly the Mac does not open doors other systems cannot (and the Mac cost more so you can forget about the price point).

The question still stands. If you think the Mac is the only platform that can do video editing or the Mac does video editing for a lower cost point you are flat-out wrong.

That's not what you said. Quote "IN MY BUSINESS" if you see it. My accusation had one hell of a basis.

Yeah the basis is you like to spew insults. Read my statement bozo – “I enjoy new toys but the Mac has about 0% market presence in the financial industry” The financial industry is my business. Hint: why would I care about market presence in the financial industry for my home machine? Clearly you like to pick fights.

My point still stands. You come in here and piss all over the thread about a machine you have ZERO experience with and know nothing about because you don't like the commercials?

You are hopeless. Debating with you is impossible. You are Mac fanatic that will insult anybody that does not agree with you – this is not a debate about a technology – this is crap. If you ever what to debate the reasons why the Mac has pretty much zero presence in the business world, let us know.

Who is "us"? You drafting an army?

How are you going to argue technology when you've not clue one what the technology does? When you've never used OS X? When you know nearly zero about Unix?

Step aside, dilettante, and let the real technologists go to work. I work for a company a hell of a lot bigger than the one you work for and have walked over the bodies of computerists of your ilk plenty of times on my way to the top of the heap.

That is all, Dilbert.
