Hi Everyone

I come from using Sony Vegas and Windows 7. I have yet to try iMovie because the download is going to take a while and I thought I should ask here in the meantime. I know iMovie is a beginner tool and after researching, the consensus is Sony Vegas is more powerful than iMovie. Can someone recommend me a video editing tool that gives more flexibility than iMovie? I would love to learn FCP but I don't have $300 lying around. I would be willing to spend some money as long as it doesn't approach of the territory of "might as well save it towards FCP". I have tried looking for older versions of FCP but they're all very expensive since they're bundled as Final Cut Studio.

I might resort to Bootcamp->Windows 7->Sony Vegas as a last resort.

Thank you for reading.
