@Sam - still no separately colourable clips unfortunately.
 
I just wish they'd fix the godawful navigation system (only let's you move back one folder structure at a time), and the 'recent folder' function attached to the copying process (which never works and requires a full navigation through however many folders for each and every camera card you need to copy).
 
I like Browse. I use it all the time to view footage. Not for transcoding or grading, but it's great for viewing dailies with the Metadata applied.
 
I like it too, I would not grade with it for many reasons but I think for dailies or down scaling to HD it's not bad.

If people want to grade, Davinci is free.
