Most around here will agree when I say, "Sony Vegas."

Sony Vegas.

The keyword is free.

Windows Movie Maker is the only really free one I've played with.  But its pretty basic.  I am not aware of any 'real' free ones.  Try searching Sourceforge for some.  Or what you can do is download Sony Vegas or Adobe Premiere and do their 30 day trials.

NUTS! I completely missed the word, "free." Sorry about that Kazaa.

That is the newest version and the Pro Pack has some added sound mixing abilities IIRC.  This is the link to the trial.

Now I'm not sure if they give you full functionality for 30 days - or you may be limited on some features.

Nope, I dont trust programs from limewire. They tend to frag computers...

No one does, why do you think the police let the people download the music from there? Because 60% of the time, their computer gets a virus then gets fried

- Cinelerra  (The best,  but very hard IMHO)
- Avidemux ( Easy )
- Kino
- VirtualDub ( Free for Windoze BSOD. Lots of users and docs. )

It is a huge deal.  He also quoted where to get it.  An automatic one week ban.

I'm surprised that the superb listing of free/open source software above (Cinelerra/VirtualDub/etc) missed one very obvious 'already being used' piece of software - Blender.  Yes, it's a 3D modeling and animation app - it also includes a non-linear video editor, very useful for doing 'higher end' things like expensive pay software.  http://blender.org for more.
