How to manage/successfully compress very large HD .MOV video files from Canon EOS 5D Mark II camera?

I just got a new Canon EOS 5D Mark II camera which produces High Def videos. My problem is just managing them once I load them on to the computer. A 2 minute video will be between 800MB and 1GB in size and will crash my computer when I try to play it. I've tried playing it with VLC, Media Player Classic, the DVD player program that came with the computer, nothing will work.
I'd also like to find a way to compress it from a 900MB .MOV file to an .AVI file under 100MB without losing much quality. I downloaded "Free MOV 2 AVI Converter" which successfully made it a 20MB .AVI file, but the quality is horrible and incredibly pixelated which defeats the purpose of the high def video. Still, there's got to be some way to do it, I mean high def videos are uploaded to YouTube that are 10 minutes long and since the max upload size is 100MB there's apparently some way to compress these vids without losing the quality.
Any help? Thanks.
