Dell XPS notebooks only come with Vista. Hard to upgrade the 1330 to XP, impossible to upgrade the 1530.

I don't intend to do any real editing, but do want to be able to capture, clip and combine short HDV clips on any new notebook I get.

Anybody with any direct knowledge of my chances to do this with a:

Dell XPS 1330
Vista Ultimate
T7500 CPU (2.2 Duo)
3GB RAM
Video: NVIDIA GeForce8400M GS w/ dedicated 128MB
Hard Drive: 160 SATA 7200rpm
