Ah I see Terry.
I guess it's what you're used to and all that.
We do occasionally cut direct HD footage (DNX185) on adrenaline machines but they would be fully loaded with RAM (4GB) and have faster SCSI drives and that seems to make them as fast as needed.
But for anything long form or with lots of source footage I'd create (capture or import) DNX185 media and then transcode to a friendly DV SD media resolution for the offline.
That also gives much easier to produce SD deliverables for review.
Then link back to the HD media for the final online.
But I always want a 3rd PAL monitor so I can see the sort of errors I'll get later in the job!
