Mmm, let's see? HD editing in Avid is pretty much flawless. HD
compositing in Digital Fusion is pretty much flawless. DV editing in
Premiere, provided I don't use Pinnacle drivers, is pretty much
flawless.
Run Liquid Edition and either my PC will spontaneously reboot or it
will trash the hard drive after I exit and restart the PC.
Does the term 'cause and effect' mean anything to you?

Of course. The fact that my PC is almost 100% reliable when doing
anything else, whereas just starting Edition, editing for a few minutes
and rebooting is enough to trash the hard disk, is irrelevant. It MUST
be the PC, it can't possibly be the Pinnacle software, even though
Pinnacle have a years-long history of releasing software that causes
crashes and spontaneous reboots (e.g. DC30+ drivers, DV300 drivers,
Pro-One drivers).
And you wonder why people don't take you seriously?

Unfortunately Pinnacle kept buying up all the other PC video editing
companies: I'm glad Avid have bought them now, they might actually
enforce some quality control on Pinnacle's software.
