Is this computer any good for a beginner?
Isys Elite Pro - Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 2048mb DDR2 667Mhz 320GB SATAII nVidia 8600GT 512MB PCI-E Grahpics DVDRW - No O/S : pc-1129

I have this camcorder -
BT Shop - Sony DCR-SR190E HDD Handycam (DCRSR190E.CEH)

And will be using xp pro with sp2 and just bought this as I was told its
beginner friendly?
Pinnacle Studio Plus Titanium Edition Video Editing Software from Pinnacle @ Inta Audio - The Online Music Shop

That pc should be ok,just be aware that Pinnacle Studio seems to need a lot of power,i know,i used to use it,11.1 plus,it uses more than vegas pro 8 which is more professional and is a huge programe,Studio was 10 gig,i couldn't believe it when i looked in add or remove programs.although it is very user friendly.
