Try a Final Cut Pro system. That's what I have.
You can get yourself an eMac for under $1000. That's got a G4 processor, and depending on where you order, you can get RAM for cheap.
As far as RAM, I have 640 MB and have no problems. The machine runs on 667 MHz, and that too goes off without a hitch.
Internal Hard Drive is 40 GB, but you can buy 120 GB firewire hard drives for under $250. That should more than cover you.
Software is another issue. FCP retails for $999, but it's worth the investment. You should also look into Media Cleaner to encode your clips.
Then there's the DV deck, which should run you about $800 or so. All in all, about a $3000-$3500 investment to do what you need.
Hope this helps.

P.S. If you need any editing work to be done in the meantime, I can help you with that, at a good rate.
