Consider this scenario. Several years ago I pretty much exclusively used an
editor that employed FCP. He has since moved from the area. Fortunately, I
have saved all projects on dedicated external hard drives. These drives
contain all the original digitized video files and the project files. I get
a lot of calls to update older corporate videos. When that happens, I take
the hard drive with that project to one of several editors I now use all of
whom use FCP. He loads up the project; we make the correction and save the
new version to the same hard drive. The new version is also rendered to one
or more delivery formats according to my client's wishes. I walk away with
the hard drive. Maybe next time I go to a different editor. My only
requirement --- that they use FCP. In my own office, where I use Vegas
non-critical family projects, I use PC's. I am unlikely to change to MAC.

I can't understand why you don't get this.
