<DIV>I'm not a Mac person, I hate Macs even though I am forced to
use<BR>them<BR>sometimes.<BR><BR>However, base don my pc experience which may
or may not apply to<BR>the person<BR>you quoted:<BR><BR>1. Simple cheap
device for placing analog or digital video into<BR>your computer<BR>is the 69.00
Belkins Video Buss II (now III). Also edits but not<BR>to my
satisfaction.<BR><BR>2. Software to edit can be VideoWave II or IV. I myself
am<BR>partial to <BR><BR>3. I recommend that you have at least a 30GB hard drive
with at<BR>least half of it <BR>free, better yet get a 60GB HD if you can afford
it.<BR><BR>4. When I am done editing videos, I transfer the whole stuff to
a<BR>CD using a CD-RW. This is so I can keep my HD form becoming<BR>overly
cluttered with space hungry video files.<BR><BR>5. As skill increases, he may
want to experiment with integrating<BR>art into<BR>videos using Bryce 4 to alter
backgrounds, the sky, inserting<BR>objects like buildings, landscapes,
etc.<BR><BR><BR>ULStudio IV.<BR>-- <BR><BR><BR>
