You can tell that Apple has either a smash hit or a huge debacle on its hands when a product becomes a punchline on late night TV. Conan O’ Brien lampoons Final Cut Pro X which got released Tuesday, immediately sparking criticism for its overhauled interface, the inability to import old projects (except for iMovie), removal of some features and what not.
