Thanks for the explanation. I hear what you are saying about the power of my computer. I actually anticipate that I would need to upgrade assuming I like how Vegas functions, but to figure that out I can work in SD and see what I think. After working with Discreet edit for nearly 10 years, I am very disappointed that Autodesk has abandoned the edit line so I cannot simply upgrade. Part of me wants to go with Avid, but that is so so much more expensive, I am hoping Vegas turns out to be all that I need. But assuming I do want to upgrade in the future, what do you suggest? How much RAM, how powerful a processor? Dual processors? etc. etc.

Thanks for the help,
