Editing Video: FCP 4, Pinnacle Studio, Avid Express, Adobe Premier?

[Chris]

Hello. I have recently used the best program I have ever
tried, Final Cut Pro 4 for Macintosh. However I have a
Windows XP operating system. Can anyone tell me a program
similar to this for less than 100 dollars? How good is
Movie Maker, compared to Final Cut? I have gotten
suggestions of trying Pinnacle Studio 9, Avid Express,
and Adobe Premier. Does this allow for multi-track
editing, like Final Cut Pro?

Chris,

Thought this was already answered in another thread (see above). Final Cut
Pro is a High-End, Professional grade, Video editing suite. MovieMaker is
free, amateur/ consumer grade, and not even in the same league as Final Cut.
MovieMaker vs. Final Cut is like comparing an Etch-a-Sketch to a Rembrandt.

There is at least one inexpensive multi-track video mixer for under $100.00
that I am somewhat familiar with... limited feature set, but certainly works
well and reasonably inexpensive...
