Complete novices will have no trouble with fundamental tasks such as capture, storyboard editing and output to DVD, even if they aren’t quite sure what really is happening. Overall, Studio 9 has a wonderful user interface that, although more complex, is even better than iMovie. NOTE: This review is based on the 9.1.2 patch, which is a 48MB download. We ran the newest version through its paces on a half a dozen machines, old and new, to see how it performed. Unless something went tragically wrong during the last development cycle, Studio 9 should be the best one yet. Each new version has added new features and has become easier to use. One of our favorite applications for video editing on a Windows computer is Pinnacle Studio.
