Fair enough :)  To be honesty, we (my wife and I) do all our video editing on 
my wife's WinXP box because of the lack of intuitive tools on Linux.  They 
are coming along, but still not quite there.

I guess I read a tone of sarcasm in your original post and felt obliged to 
speak up.  I guess I need to go home and have a beer...it's been a long, 
tedious and frustrating day in the office.

Peace :)
