Maybe this thread will help you... if you have the new FCP 5.1.2 crossgrade

Yep... but you better hurry, I think the $50 promo ends sometime in March this year

I sent mine in with my $52 check (tax) and I got it back in a week. They also don't send you new printed manuals, only the online PDFs, but what's there to complain about for $50?

It's well worth $50... the tiny few features that changed plus the 24f support make it well worth your time

Yep ... plus, one feature most don't think about that ISN'T tiny is that the new version is native to Intel Mac's, which are ridiculously faster than the PowerPC Mac's...
