Premiere is excellent, but is a bit of a resource hog compared to FCP. Not really an issue on a capable desktop, but if you do all of your editing on battery power (laptop), then it may be an issue. Though, FCP being Mac only would be a non-starter for me, personally.

Also, isn't the Pro version of Premiere a monthly subscription-only based program now? As in, stop paying and it stops working? If that's the case, you might consider looking at Premiere Elements. Just like PS Elements, it does 90% of what the "full" program does, and is more than enough for most folks who don't need/use it professionally. It's also a one-time purchase, without any "subscription" requirement, and is of course cheaper. I know you said you already purchased Pro, but if you happen to still be in the "trial" (refund) period, then you might take a look at Elements and see if you would really need/miss the few features that Pro gives you.
