Thanks for the 2¢. I am just now building up this 8500 for a mission specific purpose. I only have X in to poke around at it. All the actual work will be done in 9.1 I'm pretty sure. The immovable keystone (for now) is the Sharp analog video camera, and everything else wil be geared to it for the nonce. My end products, for the moment, are cd's with Quicktime movies made, edited, and burned through this old stuff. -- All the best, R.A. Cantrell <racan at flash.net>
