FCP6 is optimised for the 8 core Mac Pro despite what you were told in the
other thread. More cores=more realtime streams and scales almost linearly
with No. of cores. Compressor 3 is completely multi-threaded and again is
optimised for multi core Macs and is 2.5-3x (using same hardware) faster
than Compressor 2.

The new CS3 packages are not scheduled for release until September is the
last I heard.

WRT performance you can download a public beta of Premiere CS3 to check
for yourself. FCS2 is not released until the end of May so direct
comparison will not be able to be made until then but I personally am not
expecting any difference between FCP and Premiere based on what I've been
told from someone who attended NAB.

My experience with Intel Macs and FCS1, Shake and a whole host of
universal binary applications is in marked contrast to Smarty's but then I
am only a freelance compositor working in broadcast and film so what do I
know??
