the point they make is that if you're using a remote desktop program to remotely edit videos you don't need a mac on the client side.
what would have been a far better PR is if Final Cut offered enterprise solution with "server" part that holds videos and does the heavy lifting and "client" part that works with miniatures doesn't let you export anything to disk and all that

- leshenka 2y agoI'm not advocating for vendor locking, it's not what I said. I said if they wanted to advertise macs for enterprise video editing they should have implemented this in FCP natively. This however wouldn't be vendor locking because remoting would still be an option. Instead they've shown that remote desktop is the most reliable way to do this kind of job because there isn't anything better.
