Bob, I said the same thing about never worrying about drive space when I got
my 120G drive but quality and memory go hand in hand when it comes to video
storage and now purchasing another 200 G drive.
I am using pinnacle 8 capture card and reprocess with TMPGen software, Not
the greatest but I to am open to suggestions. I mostly convert the kids 8mm
video to DVD.
