hey guys,
i have an imac and am flirting with the idea of shooting with either a Canon HF-S100 or an HMC150 but I want to make sure I will have the ability to edit the AVCHD. i know this has been covered, so could someone throw me the link to show what requirements my computer will need in order to edit with fcp... it is a core 2 duo w/ 4gigs of ram. 2.0 processor... gonna work?
thanks guys

I use a 24" 2.4 GHz Core Duo w/ 2 GB of RAM and I haven't had any issues. I haven't had any issues on my 3 year old MacBook either... However you will be editing ProRes422, as FCP doesn't support native AVCHD editing (yet... crossing fingers).
