Our good friend Dave passed away last Thursday and we had a funeral earlier today. Dave was gadget enthusiast who had been introducing a lot of mobile phones to us for the past 5 years. There were the Nokia, HTC, Samsung, Motorola and many other phones he purchased and let us use. In 2007, Dave gave one of the phones to a friend who had her phone broken without even asking anything in return.
We all miss you Dave.

By the way, how do you pronounce the “X” in Final Cut Pro X?
Is it “ten” as in Roman Numeral or “ex” as in extortion?
