[MacDV] Imovie'o8

[Gordon Alley]

In general, the high-end video editors (like Final Cut Pro, Final Cut
Express, Avid, etc.) work more like iMovie HD 6. So if the students are are
being prepared for semi-pro or pro editing, they would do best to learn with
iMovie HD 6. For students who only want to do casual editing (simple home
movies, etc.), iMovie '08 would probably be simpler to use.
