[QUOTE="Aptmunich, post: 78810, member: 3850"] Well I know the person that uses it does a TON of editing with it and from what I could tell it ran quite nicely. All the effects etc aren't processed in real time, so the only real strain on the processor is video and audio playback. For previewing material, you can reduce the quality of video and audio playback so there aren't any real issues there as far as I can tell. Sure - when you actually render all your changes, you can go and make a cup of coffee while the iBook renders, but unlike iMovie, FCP lets you choose when to render stuff so it doesn't really matter... I'd get FC express, see if you can work with it before dropping all the dough on the full package. [/QUOTE]
