> Are you SCSI or EIDE?? Neither. My two towers are 386DX33 and 486SX40, both ISA/IDE. I've started to 'roll' and P-something with PCI bus. I plan to go E-IDE but I think Western Digital's largest right now is 1GB. That's about to change over the next couple of months and Pentium prices will come down too. For this reason the timing of the DC20 and Pentium workstation are about right. In the meantime I've decided to put the GVP Personal Suite Plus on the 486SX40 and see how it works. I want to get going and it looks like another 3 months best case, out to 6 months now for NLE. As has been pointed out a number of capture cards haven't worked out and the ///FAST has buggy drivers. I think the only thing on the low end for video output that makes sense is the DC1. But since I've got to wait a bit on the workstation to get the most bang for the buck, might as well drag it out and see what's standing when the dust settles a few months after NAB. -jts
