First off, good camera choice. I <3 sony. Second, please get an external mic. As good as the builtin one may be, when it come to editing you will want some cleaner sound.

As far as editing goes, I like Windows movie maker. I haven't done much with it, but I like the interface and it's easy to use if you've never edited before. Basically though, it's all about what you want to do. Simple editing of family videos or weekend projects don't call for much more than WMM. But if you want to do serious work then save up and get a serious editor. Premeire is great, so save up for that.

I would strongly recomend a Mac and Final Cut Pro, but a PC is just as good anymore. I'm a Mac fanboy what can I say?
