Great news for video editors thinking about upgrading to the New Mac Pro, Avid have just announced that the latest Apple hardware is qualified for use with Avid Media Composer 7.0.3  and 6.5.4.1. Currently you have to run OSX 10.9.1 and not the very latest OSX 10.9.2. Avid have created a PDF to read before going ahead with any upgrade to ensure your Mac Pro adheres to the configuration guidelines. You can get it here Link.

With more and more footage being shot in huge resolutions like 4K and massive formats like Camera RAW, support for the latest and most powerful hardware will always be a welcomed move.
