System Details: PC - Core 2 Duo laptop and desktop. Adobe Encore, Premiere, Photoshop, Sorenson Squeeze Compression Suite. One cannot forget the useful office software, as everything starts with a written document!
Back in the old days the editing system ran on DOS 3.0 if that matters to you. It matters to me, I still have all the floppy disks with my EDL's.
Home Theater: Samsung LCD tv and upconverting DVD player. These days I watch a lot of videos online.
Home Studio Musical Gear: Does an iPod count as home musical gear? Although I took a year of guitar lessons, it didn't take.
Hobbies and Interests: Interests outside of video include photography and photo editing, fine dining and cooking and of course watching funny videos online.
