hi all
as i got some great help from here before i am hoping you guys can help me out again
i have recently discovered that i do not have a firewire port on my pc and am not in a situation to get one installed

, i am about to purchase my first camcorder and hoped to edit the footage through my pc and upload it to the internet.
Can i still use a minidv camera without a firewire port or would i be better off getting a different type of camera? Or do i need a firewire port to do do anything with a camcorder?
Please help!
