It originally came with another eBay purchase of a Quicksilver 2002 Dual 1GHz. I think its Flash Player that tries to play back the YouTube video. It has become a cpu hog over the last year or so. So, choppy may be all we can get with our relatively slow cpus inside a browser like my Firefox. My Dual seems to work fairly well, but if I download the YouTube video, and play it back with something like VLC, choppyness is gone. If Spotlight (mds, mdsworker) is running, choppy returns. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
