Phi,
I don't know much about consumer editing software, I either use high end Avids or Final Cut Pro at home, but for the basic editing of HDV, you will be more than happy with the macbook or Macbook Pro and imovie.
Also, with leopard they imbedded some great things as far as prep and post to web as well.
also keep in mind that with parallels you have a native windoze machine as well.

David,
Thanks for the link, I will review that tonight when I have time.
At the moment, I am leaning toward getting an iMac to do the HD video editing since most people seem to recommend it.
Do you have any opinion regarding that ?
FYI, I am a video-newbie who just want to capture some nice HD footage and do minor editing.
TIA
