I am contemplating upgrading to CS5 and Neo4K for a SI2K project. I have a new computer on order. The vendor can build cheaper than I can get the bits myself and gives a 12month warranty - we shall see??

For a recent short project, it has been suggested tactfully that I should consider getting a professionally trained editor to do the assembly and edit rather than do it myself. I will admit my last effort was a bit rough. Because the computer was slow on timeline playback I was assembling by counting frames or seconds film-style.

I may have to de-activate from my machine, then "lend" Neo4K to the editor if I want it finished to the best quality.

My concern is getting it back if the editor does a clean re-install after my project is done and erases the de-activation wizardry.

You can rent a Neo4K seat for you editor. We can issue a 3 month license for around $250.
