I am planning on buying a MacBook soon...most likely the White 2.0Ghz version - i would have been happy with the 1.83 but i need a superdrive not combo.

I am mainly going to use it for Video Capturing using iMovie, iDVD and a minor use of FCP. I will be editing DV but not HD DV. I do not want to buy a MacBook Pro as i already have a 15.4" (LG) notebook and want something more portable so i can also take it to Uni.

Just wondering whether i should capture the video straight to the laptop Hard Disk (5400rpm) or to an external HDD connected via USB2 (7200rpm) - i have heard that this can cause issues in terms of video capturing - which one you capture to??

Hope someone can help

Cheers
