Intel 3Ghz w/ HT 512MB DDR RAM 300GB UDMA/100 Drive NVidia MX4000 (using SVIDEO out) FireWire Host Adapter It seems like this will be sufficient from what everyone has been saying. How fast does HD use up disk space? Does the "raw" firewire dump provide 1080i or 720p? I don't need 1080i... I don't even need 720p... but I'm guessing the 720p will require less space.
