*waves* I won't have time to join the exercises until/unless I get locked down but! I am a pretty devoted Mac user, and I use Final Cut Pro X. (I *cough* may have acquired it by ~nontraditional means because omg it's $300 yikes.)
Having recently had a lengthy conversation where I was like "I don't know what 'clipping' is? Am I doing vidding wrong??" and now more or less understanding the concept... ish, I will say that FCPX removes the need for clipping (for me). It allows keyword tagging of your source (actually the feature that led me to upgrade from iMovie). And then you can show just the clips that you tagged by clicking on the keyword.
I find the interface very intuitive, although of course as I go on and try different things, I discover even more features.
