[Web4lib] ISO recommendations for video workstation configuration

[Leo Robert Klein]

Well, since the original spec, so to speak, was a pc, I'd recommend 
Premier at least for the editing.  Also, you'll need a 1394/Firewire 
card to transfer the video from your camera to the computer.

I'd personally prefer the Mac arrangement but recently I've been working 
on a couple of projects using Premier for the first time in years, and 
like an old love, I find I prefer it over FinalCut Pro.
