The HD seems to not be a problem in that I have a 40gB for the O/S's and temp files plus a 60gB just for the data... Chuck has discovered that a tremendous amount of time is spent for the "conversion" to DVD/VOB.. The learning curve flattens, but not a happy one... :^).. Funny no one, heretofore, has mentioned this that I've seen.. Chucks CPU is a 2gHz Athlon; mine a 1.3gHz Duron.. I have 512mB DRAM and he over 700..
