Videoguys Top 10 of 2007

[Gary Bettan]

It's hard to believe that it's that time again. I've been doing this
for over 10 years now, I can remember the first Videoguys' Top 10
article that was published in 1996. Back then MotionJPEG capture cards
were the only way we could get video into our computers, and that was
no easy matter. The PCI bus was the new technology but IRQ problems,
driver conflicts and storage bottlenecks were still the norm.

Wow! How things have changed. Today we can edit HD video with an off
the shelf computer and a FireWire port. Video editing products are
stable, reliable and, most importantly, affordable. The level of
sophistication and features found in today's video editing software
and plug-ins are simply amazing.
