DIVX - Oh how that word makes my blood boil. But I'll save my harsh words for the salesperson I always torment at the local CC, who told me once upon a time "DIVX will never go away! Its a great product!" {puke}

Anyway, I just wanted to mention that my search for a shop has come to a close. I'll be borrowing the services of a couple of friends, who have enough experience for me to be comfortable with, and we'll spend an afternoon setting it all up. That way I get to actually see whats being done, learn something about it, and I can actually contribute. Nevermind save some $$.

Thanks to all who commented and gave advice - Its a waiting game for me now!
