Andi -- you need to go back and check.  Many times someone else has mentioned Vegas as well as other 3rd party alternatives for things DS can't do.  I bought my first copy of Vegas on ebay for $200 4 yrs ago, and it's been the best swiss army knife of all things video and audio that I've ever found.   Were it not for Vegas, I couldn't get half the stuff in/out that I need with the DS.  (Am I the only one who have wacky clients that bring the strangest stuff in to edit?).

So -- it's not a replacement for DS, but it sure as heck makes a super tool to enhance the DS.  Besides, it's only $600 new in a box.

And here's another one for ya:  there are those on the Avid development team who are huge fans of Vegas. ;-) 

OK -- so it's probably obvious to everyone that the DS is rendering right now... :-)  

I'm happy -- I'm getting 3 hours of sleep straight at a time now!  WooHoo! The new baby and family came and had lunch with me here at the office yesterday.  She's just over a week old now and is Daddy's pride and joy. (VP of technology from Sony already asked me to get a picture of her with her hand on the keyboard in front of Vegas to caption "Training the Next Generation."). 

Later,
td
