PC's have come along ways with video in the past couple of years, but you are right, mac is very easy to use with video. We use TD Video by BW Software in input all our scouting tapes and print off reports. It does not have all the bells and whistles of DSV or LRS, but for what we need it is excellent. Plus the price is much better! 895.00 We downloaded the software to each coaches mac and then our tech guy had external hard drives and we bought one more. There is a usb key you need to plug into the main computer that will be doing all the video entry, but the other 3 do not need the key for data entry or viewing cutups or printing off reports. On Saturday I copy all the files to each coaches external hard drive and we are all set to go. It takes about 3-8 min for each set of games to copied to the external hard drives. www.bwsoftware.com

I second the TDVideo. We use it for our scouting and game reporting. I don't use their reports very much as I export everything to Excel and run things from there. It's a very cost effective way to get the video broken down and the data entered.
I also use it for the highlight generation. I mark the good plays, and when it's time, I find and select those clips and copy them to iMovie. Very easy and transparent.

I third the TD Video. Inexpensive but effective for what we need.
