    WTF????
    just tell us if it has a switch not how its bloody brain works!
    seriously I couldnt be arsed to read down that. All Im interested in is what spec you have with regards to ram, motherboard, proccessor and (with regards to film) most importantly graphics card. Also ,of course, plenty of hard drive space and firewire connections on your motherboard if you are going to work with DV

    M8, you don’t want to be posting your product keys on a public forum.

    I suggest you delete them all.

    All we need to know is

    Cpu
    Ram
    G/card
    H/drive
    S/card
    M/board

    With any image prossesing its down to getting as much ram as possible, but since your after vid editing, cpu and g/card come into play.

    Oh and a very good TFT, as your going to be looking at it for very long periods.
