I don't use Safari, and I know Firefox doesn't use QuickTime to render anything. I don't see how the Finder uses it, and I am pretty sure the Finder doesn't use it, because when I open Quick Look (which I never use) it takes a few seconds the first time, as if it's... loading QuickTime! Also, I don't use iTunes or Mail, but I'm pretty sure Mail wouldn't use QuickTime either. > QuickTime is a lot more than just QuickTime Player. > > - Dan. > -- > - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth > > > > -- -hackmiester --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
