For an application like that, the IBM is the WORST possible choice.

Also, ad advise skipping the step of storing >40 hours< of VHS video, and
sound. Just have it come off a videdisk, or buy a VHS deck that has remote
control inputs for computer controls..
Get yourself an Amiga, a good sized hard drive (80-330 meg or so). From there,
your Amiga will comewith a Multimedia package called AmigaVision, and all
documentation is included with it. A very VERY smooth, feature-packed easy to
use presentation maker.

Total budget: I could do it for around $2500-$3000.
