First off I am a new member to this site. So I wanted to say hi! Now to the question. I bought a canon gl1 a few months ago and it uses them mini tapes. I just bought a new laptop computer for editing purposes and it doesn't have a firewire port or any way to put one in.

Although the computer I am on Right now is my older one and it does have a firewire port, just isn't big enough to run my editing software. So is there a way to get my video captured from my camera to my new computer by using the old computer? Or is there a better way? Any and all help is much appreciated.
