Happy Tenth Birthday!

Shur Harewood sent me a reminder this morning that April, 2009, is the tenth anniversary of the release of Final Cut Pro.

In a 2002 press release Apple wrote:

Since its introduction in April 1999, Final Cut Pro has become the most popular professional video editing software in the world with a strong following among film and video professionals.

Here’s the 2002 press release from Apple announcing that Final Cut won its first Emmy (this was the earliest release I could find on Apple’s website that mentions Final Cut):

So, Happy Birthday to Final Cut!
