Computers across Hollywood are mysteriously breaking down, leaving studios unable to work on films.
The problem appears to be an issue with the Avid software that is used to produce films, and the Mac Pro computers that it is loaded onto.

Avid posted on Twitter that it was "aware of the reboot issue affecting Apple Mac Pro devices running some Avid products".
