Even though it’s not very long, I spent days on it and really don’t want to try starting it all over again!

I have had another idea. I’m going back to my hometown for Christmas and I have a friend who has Final Cut Pro (or at least I think he does), I won’t have time to work on my edit while I am there but I could take my hard drive open the file and export it as one video file. Could I then just import the video file into FCPX and continue to work on it by editing the remainder of my footage onto the end of it?
Will Final Cut Express import HD footage?

So my only option is to find an older system with Final Cut Pro to finish the project?
I don’t really want to buy Final Cut Pro unless I can find it really cheap… would it even run on Lion?
