CURRICULUM GUIDE

Sidebar: Alienware MJ-12 DV Workstation

I am a longtime fan of Alienware (

http://www.alienware.com ), from its early days in the late 1990s as a maker

of PCs geared to hardcore PC gamers to its position today as a market leader in high-performance PCs.

Figure 5.7: Alienware—the leading PC maker for hardcore gamers and DV enthusiasts.

Considering Adobe Premiere Pro’s new tack as a technology-driven NLE, I knew I’d need some extra PC

power to test its full functionality and performance. So I turned to Alienware, and they agreed to provide a

loaner DV workstation: their top-of-the-line MJ-12 (shown in Figure 5.8).

The MJ-12 has every technological component available to enhance the Adobe Premiere Pro experience.

Running side-by-side with a reasonably powerful PC

dramatically demonstrates the performance

enhancements it provides.

powerhouse.

It has every element I enumerated earlier this hour:

• Dual Pentium 4 Xeon 2.8 GHz CPUs

• Two GB Corsair DDR SDRAM

• A two-disk RAID array (plus a third system

drive) using Seagate Barracuda 120 GB hard

drives

• An NVidia Quadro 1000 dual-monitor video

card with dual DVI (Digital Video Interface)

connectors that support the latest digital flat panels and also work with standard analog PC

monitors

• An ASIO-compliant SoundBlaster Audigy 2, 6.1 digital surround sound card with six speakers and a

sub-woofer
