Ken,

I was the original poster that started this thread. After fully
considering your comments, I wanted to ask you what is the best video
capture device to use instead of Dazzle, and also what is the best
video capture software to use in conjunction with whatever that best
video capture device is? Something external would be best, such as
something that plugs into my USB port. Also, is an external hard
drive that plugs into my USB port going to be sufficient for an
external hard drive for video capture? Anything else I should require
for an external hard drive? Also, I have heard about a Firewire port,
but have never used one, and am not sure if I have one. Is it better
to hook the hard drive and video capture device into a Firewire port
instead of a USB port? Do they even make hard drives and video
capture devices that plug into a Firewire port? What does the
Firewire port look like so I can tell if I have one?

Sorry for all the questions, but I think this will be the last stuff I
will need to know to get the equipment I need.

Thanks.
