Adobe Premiere for MacOSX

Hi all,

I'm new-ish to Macs and completely new to video editing. Basically what I want to do is show 2 quicktime movies in a split screen format. Our computer department told me that the only software they have in stock is Adobe Premiere. Does anyone how good that software is for video editing in MacOSX? Or does anyone recommed anything else?

Thanks in advance

try final cut express. its better then premier. it will allow much more render-free functions and previews in real time. less you need to render, faster you work. it will save lots of time
