I had the Coleco gaming machine. At the time, very advanced. Then, they
tried their hand at making it into a computer, the Adam. Glad I didn't
go that route and bought a C64 instead.

The MindMeld training DVD is great. Paul has a way of bringing a lot of
information (and he is active in the Pinnacle forums) in a relaxed
manner. There are other DVD's out there that will bring other features
more to the forefront, but I love Paul's delivery. And the way he shows
how to do the DVD menu's is great. I also own Dive Into LE and Adita's
Mastering LE. All bring something different to the table.
And then, there are the websites that have lots of tricks and tips along
with Pinnacle's own online tutorials.
Your computer seems to be more than up to the task of running Liquid. My
computer is an Athlon64 3200 with 1.5gigs ram and Radeon X800XT video
card. I am using SATA drivers (not that they made a difference in
capture for DV) and right now, the built in sound on the Neo Platinum
nForce motherboard. It works just fine. I have a M-Audio 410 sitting on
the side and have yet to install it. Liquid, as I have said, has been
very stable for me. Just as stable as Premiere has been.
