What would ya'll say is the best program for editing video?
Editing, trimming, from existing video files, something that is user friendly also?
 
Well, there are many options depending on what you want to be able to do, HD, DVD authoring and so on. And how much do you want to spend? I can make a few recommendations. Stay away from Pinnacle Studio, even though Avid has purchased Pinnacle it is still very buggy. I would recommend Adobe Premier Elements for a beginner. It's got alot for the price and the new version 3.0 even does HD. For a little more money you could go with Vegas Video + DVD which is great for the price. For even more you could go with Avid Xpress. Check the system specs. before you buy.
 
All it took was a bit of reading for me to get the basics of adobe premiere, and I like it. Very easy to do stuff.
 
I use Virtualdub for almost everything, and I like it a lot. I wouldn't exactly call it friendly though.
