DO NOT TOUCH DAZZLE!!!!!!!!!!! I had the 150 model and while it wasn't a complete peice of crap it certainly wasn't worth what I paid for it. Dazzle does a VERY poor job of updating thier software and has a lovely tendency to ignore thier consumers when they come to them with complaints. The other thing is that the stupid thing has a forced FAT32 setup or something. Even though my HD was NTFS format it still refused to allow me to have a file that was over 4GB, it would automatically split it and the only way you could fix that was by doing a render which was very time consuming AND IT NEVER ONCE produced perfect results. The video was jumpy or the audio would detach from the video (making it like watching an old Godzilla movie). The unit itself wasn't bad but the software was among the worst I have seen. If you want the absolute best in videocapture then I strongly recommend picking up a Canopus. Expensive but they are second to none. ;)
