hello forum type place. ok i have an average cam corder (mv600 canon). so i thought hey ive always wanted to do some movie type stuff and get out all my frustrated creativity. thus my bro gave me an average cpu but im not ungrateful. i then bought a firewire thingy for it which came with ulead vid 7. my excitement at this point was akin to a rebirth of spirit. then......firstly frustration, then anger, then depression. everything is so slow and temperamental. i feel the world would be a better place for my film efforts so in this spirit could you give a simple starter some simple steps as you lot all talk like nasa experts or something! low budget, high enthusiasm i would like anyone to recommend a cpu that could beat me walking round the world on foot. cam corder recommend would be nice too. this is my first post so be gentle learned loads already from looking at this site, thanks a lot, mike
