IMO PPro2's GPU rendering of specific effects and a few other features are nice and should be used by others, but it seems many of its "new" things like image sequence export have been in other programs for ages. Once I see the release version I may change my mind, but for now....

Why they recommend only Intel CPUs? What about AMD?
It's only 32 bits apps? What about 64 bits? It's early for 64 bits apps or they don't take seriolsy 64 bits OS (Microsoft XP 64 bits)?
What will be accelerated using GPU? HD previsualization? General render or only 3D effects previsualizaton?
Why they recommend dual Xeon for HD? What about more cheaper dual core CPUs (probably better)?
HDV in native mode? No conversion? Like Liquid 7?
I'm a big fan of Premire Pro 1.5.1, after years of don't use it (from premiere 6 since now). But now I'm using some HDV material and I can't edit it. I will need MORE powerful computer (dual or more cores), MORE GPU help (at this time I think that Premiere Pro 1.5.1 don't use it), MORE ram memory (two gigas minimum), etc.
HD changes EVERYTHING.
P.D: What will happen when SONY Playstation 3 arrives? Blue Ray, HD native, powerful than any computer that you can buy... and probably it will be a Computer with OS (Linux?). New MSX computer with multimedia apps or only game console?
Xbox 360 is a Beast, but only a game console.

The AMD 64 bit CPUs all work fine because they support SSE2 instruction set, the AMD they are talking about are the XP's and MP CPU's which they made obsolete over night, and for a good reason, Adobe needs the SSE-2 instruction set to accelerate effects and real-time abilties which the MP's and XP lack.

All the 3D effects like page curls, etc.

HD or HDV requires tons of processing especially HDV where it has to uncompress and then recompress each frame.
Uncompressed HD is easier on the system thatn HDV believe it or not. so you will need minimum dual XEONs at 3.4Ghz (check out my system specs) to run at least one layer of HDV in realtime with effects and titles and two layers uncompressed HD with effects.
HDV in native mode? No conversion? Like Liquid 7?
Don't think this is supported yet.

When HD-DVD and Blue Ray become widely available, companies will start to support these formats like Adobe Encore and others.
