I need some additional cou

I need some additional counsel. Since deciding to go with MAC, I’m considering getting a MacBook Pro to start instead of the Mac Pro. This is to allow me to edit video on site. I am doing very basic projects with this (3-5 minute finished clips). I’ve also learned that I can speed the process up by getting a video card, but I was wondering if this would be necessary for the smallish projects I’ll be editing. If I go the laptop route, would that even be an option?

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Sean
