Yeah, moviemaker is pretty unsophisticated.  If you have FCP, I'd use it
instead. 

I wouldn't expect that generation of SGI desktop to be too stellar at
video editing, although with a hardware compressions board and Max
Impact graphics, and software that is probably virtually impossible to
get ahold of, the I2 wouldn't be too bad.
