[QUOTE="CarlConti08, post: 312385, member: 17678"] The newest C2D MacBook Pros(2.33GHz) are the first Intel laptops to run Rosetta apps FASTER than the G5 PowerBooks. So if you go the MacBook Pro route over plain old MacBook, which I would assume you would since you'd need the more powerful graphics card, having it run slower shouldn’t be much of a problem. As far as your DVD camcorder, I can't be sure without hooking it up and checking, but I would think it'd be compatible with a Mac. Macs come stock with tons of drivers built in. If you want to go Mac, take the camcorder up to an apple store or apple retailer, explain your situation and I'm sure they'll hook it up and see if it works. I don't know much about slideshow videos or software but I’ve made some using imovie and they looked good. I can't be much help with that (that is if what I’ve said has been any help at all) but I’m sure someone out there in the forums knows of some good program. Also, if you decide to check out the compatibility of your camcorder, talk to one of the apple salespeople. If you explain what your needs and concerns are, I'm sure they can find things to meet those needs. [/QUOTE]
