hello, I searched but did not find another thread (must be out there)

i have a new Canon HF100 which is avchd, and I use Vista 64. Is there any program out there which will let me edit my avchd clips using Vista 64 bit other than Sony Vegas. Im only trimming the files and making minor edits so Vegas is way overkill.

On the box of Uleads VS says it recommends vista 32bit.
Id like to keep it simple and ~$100. Thanks!!!

and....

Im open to ideas, like since they will always be 2-10min clips should I just convert them into something first then use another editor? Id like to build some DVDs eventually and if they stay in AVCHD thats is best for Blue Ray?. If so what would work best for Vista 64????

Thanks.
