That said, I would like to find a new editing software that will allow me to work easier with these HD .MOV files. I have heard lots of people talking about this Vegas program, but I know nothing about it. Do any of you think this program would be a solution to my problems? Any other suggestions are appreciated, too!
Many thanks,

Sony Vegas does handle .mov files quite well. For a Windows based computer, Vegas is the best solution. However,if you are going to get really serious about .mov production you might want to consider buying a MAC and using Final Cut. I have considered buying a MAC with Final Cut preinstalled, but I can't bring myself to laying out the $5,000+ for a computer and software system I have no familiarity with.
