Hi John, thanks for your response.

I am going to edit soccer matches, basic cut and render, as well as combining several video inputs for creating a split screen output.

Nothing special really, no sound significance for instance.

but my budget is quite large so I want to buy something good that will last for as many years as possible.

Do you have anything specific in mind maybe?

DV from a tape camera or DSLR from a still camera that also does video or AVCHD from a dedicated video camera... or... ???

Click the 1st 2 links I provided (I think you can ignore the 4k video link) to get ideas

I am going to use videos recorded from a brand new small digital video camera and stuff that i will download from the web.

So i guess stuff like MP4, AVI etc.

I looked at the links, but i see that in all of them there is a need for customization after buying.

I'm not much of a specialist so i would rather but something that will suit my needs without the need of any customization. any thought?

Thanks,

Ehud

>suit my needs without the need of any customization

I think http://www.adkvideoediting.com/ sells laptops, as well as desktops... go look

Otherwise, there are very few laptops that are ready for video editing
