LOL.
Except we'll see him on this newsgroup after he's spent a few months with
one of the HDD machines asking, "Why don't my DVDs look as good as the one
the videographer did of my sister's wedding?"
THEN he'll learn. ;)

I use my camcorder for travel video, and generally will shoot 5 to 10 hours
of raw video a week. That's 70 to 140 gigs on a 3-week trip. It would
defeat the point of the convenience of direct-to-disk capture if I had to
transfer everything to a laptop every night.
