Here are some additional announcements:

Lion Only
One of our DC Avid Users Group members wanted me to share with Mac OS Avid users the fact that MC6 is supported on Lion 10.7 only. A lot of us Mac users are currently running Snow Leopard so we'll need to upgrade to Lion in order to run MC6. Because MC6 is making the leap from 32 to 64-bit, the system requirements are important to follow. Here's a link to more info:
