I guess the new smokeSD on Linux will be about $60k. But if you need HD, then it should go above $160k, with Tezro. But smokeSD is aggressively priced, and should be a good price as an AVID system. But if you go HD, AVID will be a lot cheaper than smoke*… Plus there are lots of AVID editors, but very small amount of real smoke* editors, compared to AVID editors.
Smoke* is for very creative jobs, if you compare to AVID. But you have to spend more time on a simple job with smoke, becuase it is much more complex.

First of all, the user interface looks much the same. And you know, the flame* tools like, colorwarper, MK, won’t be on flint* v6.
And the other version specific differences I remember:

1. There is no multiple views in action
2. No locked reels on desktop
3. There are no expressions
4. There should be memory reserved for audio data on v6

These are the ones I remember, correct me if I’m wrong.
