Useful, but little more than the manuals, July 4, 2008
By
Philip Hodgetts (Burbank, CA United States)
I pre-ordered this book and if it had been available when I ordered it, it would have been very helpful. However three weeks later, it was only mildly helpful as I'd already gathered most of the information from the manual. While there appears to be little additional information than is in the manual, the analysis questions and real world situations do make this a worthwhile purchase.
Great book to get you started with Final Cut Server, June 27, 2008

If you have Final Cut Server or are thinking about buying it, this book will be a huge help. It coves the concepts you should understand to get you up and running. This is a complex product and getting off on the right foot is important. The book is worth the money in time savings alone.
