Do You Know Of A Special Effects Film Editing Software?

My brother makes short movies featuring lightsaber duels. He creates the effects frame by frame using the GIMP. Is there a film editing software that makes this process more convenient and smooth – such as, not having to do the animated inserts frame by from?
Free downloads are desirable if available, of course, but any reliable program would be nice to know about.

I can only shrink 319MB from my HDD
I checked with PerfectDisk and it says that there’s a block of Excluded Data Block and a Metadata Block near the end of the drivehttp://www.flickr.com/photos/38265814@N0…
If you can’t really see the image then enlarge it by clicking on all sizes
Can somebody tell me how to get more room for shrinking without a 3rd party software or at least tell me how to move the blocks of data?

Windows Xp Will Not Boot! Help Me Please!?

I cannot get my computer to boot. I am using an HP desktop computer. I updated Windows, and then it said that the computer had to restart. So I restarted it; but now it won’t boot at all. It tries to boot; it shows the HP logo, the Windows XP logo, and then a black screen… and then these words show up:
“We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this.
If your computer stopped responding, restarted unexpectedly, or was automatically shut down to protect your files and folders, choose Last Known Good Configuration to revert to the most recent settings that worked.
If a previous startup attempt was interrupted due to a power failure or because the Power or Reset button was pressed, or if you aren’t sure what caused the problem, choose Start Windows Normally.
Safe Mode
Safe Mode with Networking
Safe Mode with Command Prompt
Last Known Good Configuration (your most recent settings that worked)
Start Windows Normally”
I have tried all of those things. When I try to use any of those three Safe Mode options, the screen is filled with line after line after line of text (is that supposed to happen?) and then I can’t do anything. I can’t type, the Enter key does nothing, and the only thing I can do is turn the computer off.
On the HP screen, I have these options on the bottom of the screen:
Esc = Boot
F1 = Setup
F10 = System Recovery
Would a System Recovery erase all of the files on my computer? If so, I don’t want to do that unless it is ABSOLUTELY necessary. I’d like to fix this while keeping my files and folders in tact.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem and get my computer to boot? Please help, I have run out of ideas!

Do You Think There Ever Could Be A Better Software Giant Than Microsoft?

Do you think there ever could be, maybe not now but perhaps in 10-20 yars time, a better software company than Microsoft, or a better Internet-Search company than Google who creates a better operating system than Windows or a better Search Engine than Google, or better productivity suites, internet sevices,IM etc? Do you think it could be possible for a new company to be dominant by taking out the dominant companies out there now?
