Thanks very much for your time and hope to hear something soon. Virgil Gross There is a sticky thread on the forum at freebsdforums.org, I believe in the "FreeBSD General" category, in which several people have posted screenshots of their BSD desktops. I don't know, on the other hand, how many people are using BSD for video editing. It would likely be a rather small user niche, but I could be quite wrong. The Good News: Mac OS X is based on BSD, stable as a rock, and has lots of video editing SW available, and a large user base in the community of video editors. Bad side, it isn't free.
