So my dad wants to get a mac for video editing. I'd like Mac users to give their pluses/minuses on the editing on the mac.
Assume he'd want to use Vegas (so that means boot camp+Windows 7), burn to DVD and capture via firewire. He also uses publisher and powerpoint for lots of things.
Editing on Vegas is iffy but he uses my camera so he needs to capture video somehow and I have an HDV camera. PowerPoint he uses a LOT for work and publisher he uses for him promotions company to make the flyers/etc.
So, and good points, bad points, what should he get/avoid/etc.
