Avid buys Pinnacle for $462 million
03/22/2005 03:49 PMAvid Technology, the leading player in video and film editing tools,
has revealed it is to buy rival video-editing maker Pinnacle Systems
in a deal reported to be worth $462 million. The move is the latest in
a series of buy-outs in the video market, as Avid and Apple Computer
battle for the professional video high ground.
The purchase by Avid prices Pinnacle at a premium of 30 per cent above
its market value, and is based on a stock and cash deal. Under the
terms of the agreement, Avid says it will issue 0.0869 shares of Avid
and $1 in cash for each Pinnacle share. Avid says it expects to issue
around 6.2 million shares – around 15 per cent of its common stock.

Pinnacle ShowCenter is a $300 set-top box that plays
music, video, and photos over a network from your PC. It's too bad it
doesn't support AAC and MP4, but at least it supports some form of
MPEG-4. I'll be
watching AVS Forum for reviews. I've previously mentioned the
Roku HD1000 which has
similar features, and there's also the
Hauppauge

Of Innovation
06/03/2004 12:07 PMThe details of how this study was conducted are not entirely clear,
but apparently, when asked, folks in the UK
consider the
smoke detector to be the top innovative gadget, beating out mobile
phones, microwave ovens and digital cameras. I keep looking for the
punchline about how this study was sponsored by a smoke detector
company, but can't find it. It's not that the good old smoke detector
isn't a useful gadget - it's just that it seems strange that so many
people would pick it as the most innovative. The article quotes
people saying that this shows how much the Brits value practicality,
but it makes me wonder if the Brits are having trouble filling out
surveys properly - or if they just tend to set themselves on fire too
often.
