good guess
That was rough estimation after the 7% drop due to number confusion. But isn't it amazing how that starts to be a substantial drop in storage. I mean, that is almost an entire project's worth of...

Moshing it up
I love receptions, and I love the .3 semi-fish eye I just got. I used it a lot for the reception on my most recent wedding because it made the crowd that much closer and more involved. I didn't...

Is that likely to come with a Vegas update package as well? What about a Soundforge update. I've been thinking of getting Sound Forge for the Noise reduction plugin so I can use it in Vegas. and if...

flahs drives
Some flash drives had horribly slow transfer speeds which may impact your ability to use them to store footage for editing. They are cheap, but (in my opinion) nothing near the price / storage ratio...

My last project had around 38 tracks (video & audio) because some media files needed specific track level real-time effects (I only have 4 video tracks, the rest were audio). If one track needed...

Are you going to be layering on the filters/CC/real time audio effects etc, doing lots of MB work, workign on native Mt2 HD files instead of cineform proxies? If so, then go with Q6600 (quad core)...

About the only benefit I could see is to use the lease as a "try before you buy" method. Lease for a month or so and see if you like the new hardware / workflow, etc. Then buy it on your own. I...

first off
