My experience is that AVID/FC (I still refuse to use the P word, but most things I've experienced have been user error) delineation stems more from budget than anything.

That, too, can also go along with 'Hollywood' being AVID for the most part. And also the fact that editors use what they're used to. Final Cut is sure making inroads, though.

But that's not "PC vs Mac" as the OP was asking--

Everyone I know locally that uses Final Cut is on Mac (and vice versa, every editor that I know locally owns a mac and uses Final Cut...). All of our post audio computers are Mac (and who keeps saying PT 8 isn't stable? Don't use PT 8...haha...it is too new!). I only know of one facility (Vancouver) that uses pretty much exclusively PCs now to run their PT rigs on. Not 100% positive but believe most of Toronto is Mac also.

"just the way it is"--why change things that work (/why spend more money)--seems to apply many times.
