[Gllug] OT Firewire/Fast Networking

[Ian Baillie]

Unfortunately, it is just simple cutting and pasting of clips using only
the special fx found in iMovie.  I'm also going to experiment at home
using an Athlon based Machine with a Lacie Firewire drive (80Gb), but I
haven't set up a machine yet.  Not sure whether it'll be WinXP or Linux
yet, need to source some suitable software and see how easy it is to
setup...
