This IS professional!

But it has a trial period, maybe long enough time to get you project done.
Seriously, this program is worth trying. At $399.99, it may not be within your FREE budget. But at least see what it has to offer.

Free and professional don't typically go hand in hand, but let's see what is out there.
For free software (windows) you can use Microsoft Movie Maker 2 - will get the basics done like cuts, fades, music, titles. It can't burn to DVD though. You'll need Roxio, Nero, or other authoring software.
You could download Avid FreeDV which offers more than Movie Maker 2. It doesn't offer more than video editing software you can purchase. CamcorderInfo.com has a great series on making a movie with Avid Free DV. Click here to see that http://www.camcorderinfo.com/d/Columns&level_b=Edit%20to%20the%20Maxx.htm
For Apple you've got iMovie and iDVD. It is similar to Movie Maker in features but a bit better. You can also get Avid FreeDV for Apple as well (avid.com).
I don't know what you want to do with your videos, but there are a number of great consumer level editors such as:
Adobe Premier Elements 3.0 (PC)
Ulead Video Studio (PC)
Final Cut Studio (Apple)
If you are dead set on not spending any money, then you'll need to wait for the new Ubuntu Studio to come out in April. I don't know about the number of features, but I am guessing it will be a professional editor. We'll just have to wait and see.
Good luck!

Assmuming you are on a Mac otherwise you wouldn't be looking at Final Cut Pro your options are iMovie08 for beginners which you will already have, or Final Cut Express for $199 from Apple and it doesn't get any cheaper or better than that. I would agree with the top poster - Professional, easy and FREE don't go in the same sentence but professional and easy do. Also Final cut is worth its weight in gold so why pirate it?

Illegally? or legally? There are ways to get it illegally for free, but as for how, I wont have anything to say on that matter.
As for legally, you can get student discounted prices at the studentfilmmakers.com store. Hope this helps!
BTW, Final Cut Studio isnt a consumer product, but Final Cut Express is.
