>Radius brings post production video to desktop.
[Staff] - Holstering the video production power of a PCI based Macintosh, Radius has announced Radius EditDV 1, a "breakthrough editing system that brings professional-level, 100% digital non-linear editing to the desktop."
The new hardware and software package combines first end-to-end DV format editing solution with DraftDV, a unique rendering mode, allows the editor to produce VHS-quality drafts three to five times faster than fully rendered video. The three other tools included with this package are SoftDV, Radius EditDV's scalable playback software codec, which allows users to view different levels of resolution, LiveDV which lets editors turn QuickTime movies into full motion over FireWire, and non-square pixel rendering eliminates distortion in the rendering process, MotoDV, Radius's award-winning digital capture software.
Mark Housley, Radius president and CEO makes the bold statement: "We believe that Radius EditDV will do for video what Adobe Photoshop did for photography."
One breakthrough provided by Radius's EditDV is its price of $999. Previously, high-end workstations capable of the same effects have cost $25,000 - $50,000. The total price of a high-end Macintosh and EditDV brings the total price of a full video workstation to $6,000 - $7,000.<

I know little about the subject, but I think this release is on point.
