Message: <blockquote data-quote="chas_m" data-source="post: 1023187">Since nobody else mentioned it, I will: three of the four programs the OP specifically mentioned are available as Mac versions. Most companies will let registered users "sidegrade" for just the cost of a normal upgrade.The one program left that he would "need" Windows for, Sony Vegas, is largely superceded by iMovie, which comes free with the machine (or, if need be, as part of the $79 iLife 09 package). Yes, I know the two programs don't bear *direct* comparison, but most people just want to get the darn video edited, looking good and uploaded or burned -- and iMovie/iDVD do that better than anybody at the consumer level IMHO.</blockquote>
