OT: any significance to the timecode on the FCP startup screenPosted by wayne granzin
Or it could mean hours if the FCP editor was the one who just gives up listening and just cuts something while the whiner is left to whine into the wind as the buttressed walls of civilization crumble around them until all we have left is Peter Ustinov and his cats to show us the folly of our youth obsessed culture. Renew! Renew!

"Cynics" not "critics"
Critics should have something constructive to say... I read this on another board - at least we have something a little less Autistic to say about our lovely Digi-slate!

Apparently 4:24:48:20 is a sequence of 4 answers (out of the full 65) to the equation:
a^2+b^2+3*c^2+3*d^2=n [1,4,4,4,20,24,4,32,52,4,24,48,20,56,32,24,116,72, 4,80,120,32,48,96,52,124,56,4,160,120,24,128,244, 48,72,192,20,152,80,56,312,168,32,176,240,24,96, 192,116,228,124,72,280,216,4,288,416,80,120,240, 120,248,128,32,500] Listen here to the full sequence expressed on an 88-key keyboard: [loudandfast.co.uk] or the 4:24:48:20 looped!

If I could waste my time doing stuff like that and NOT answering stupid forum questions, I'd do it. But I don't have access to a piano.
I could try to learn the harmonica. I wonder what this would sound like on the harmonica... www.shanerosseditor.com Listen to THE EDIT BAY Podcast on iTunes [itunes.apple.com]
I didn't see this in the responses (I think) but they are all even numbers.

That's a horrible name for a woman... Whoever she is... www.strypesinpost.com
4:24:48:20 means that the FCP team of developers smoked herb (hence, the 4:20) 24 hours a day for 2 days, after finally completing FCP, at a party. I know this - My Brother - In - Law worked as a creative consultant several years ago. He told me that he met Steve Jobs. Super cool guy. Anyway, that's what 4:24:48:20 means.
