Well, I don't know who he is, but it sounds like he's an old guy with a lot of opinions - which probably means he arrived at them through experience. Looking at his resume, he's certainly entitled to them. I'll take a guess that since he's nice enough to talk to you at all, it would be in your interest to learn as much as he's willing to share with you. If he seems to be wrong or outdated about something, just make a note of it, and pay attention to how his ideas fit into his own way of working.
Sorry, but that's not an opinion about Adobe or Pro Tools. Almost all professional studios have Pro Tools, and certainly plenty of pros are turning out top-quality product with it. If you know what you're doing, you can probably do that with Adobe, too. It's only $350, so I'll take a guess it's worth a gamble.
