Sounds like you're heading in a solid direction. I'm not sure I'd pop for
the 9700 at the start. The 7000 could be easily resold here if you decide
you want more machine. But I don't think you'd need anything else when NLE
comes along. I'm settling in for one to two years more of linear editing. I
suspect it will take something like this for consumer NLE to get here. If
it's this year that will be nice but I think the odds are not good unless
you settle for buggy capture cards, software and large expensive SCSI drives
and host adapter. That's the reason I decided to pick up another Vdeck
rather than turn blue holding my breath. If I'm wrong, that's good!
