    Any Apple Mac video editing experts here before I burn my MAcbook Pro

    When I bought my Macbook Pro I used to be able to import videos in AVCHD format into iMovie, edit them films and then burn them to a DVD. Now for some strange reason that can only be explained as 21st century progress I've lost that function as I 'updated' my Mac with the latest software...

    Anyone live in Aberdeen to see a C320cdi?

    Hi, Found a nice looking W203 C Class which seems to tick all the boxes but is nearly 400 miles away in Aberdeen. Distance isn't an issue for me in terms of collecting it (despite the wife's moaning) but I was wondering if anyone is local and fancies taking a look if its not too far away...
