Not true. Paid version isn't limited. I mentioned FRAPS earlier. I don't recommend it for "desktop" style recordings just because it's more oriented to recording games. On top of that, if you decide to go into editing, the Snagit->Camtasia pair works wonders.
what do you mean, "not true"? The free version is limited. He said he just wanted to make some how-to videos. Shoot, it's free, he can download and try it. If it doesn't work, what is he out?
Your post and my edit were apparently made at the same time. You are right that it's free, but I don't think FRAPS is friendly to "desktop" users.
no problems :cheers2: it might not be, but it's free and he can try it and see if he likes it before spending money. That's all that I was trying to convey.
