[MacDV] Re: movie length

Absolutely - movie length doesn't matter with Final Cut Express since you can choose how
much of your project is loaded in the timeline in a particular editing session. Work on
a short sequence with no processor delays and then string them together for the final
project export. I still use a G3 500 laptop when I need to be on location.
