Replying to Shitttt

Yah, so another cam thread that...tiring i bet.

Anyways after figuring out how to get my computer to work and transfer video from my new Canon Vixia HF200 to my comp I now have a new problem and it's almost turning me away from even trying anymore.  My computer seems to be too slow to edit the HD quality video I have recorded.  For anyone who films what is the best way to speed up your computer to edit higher quality video and how much does it usually cost (and no im not switching to mac)?

I may just say fuck it all and bring back my video cam and exchange it for a digital slr and just shoot some photog.

Helpppp me make my comp faster
