If a website is written to conform to standards, and sends the video content, linux handles it beautifully. When the website checks to ensure that a client running their accepted OS and web browser, and denies access if the client is not said OS and browser, that is against standards, and what I consider brain dead.

I have no trouble viewing youtube, quicktime movie trailers, flash, java, wmv, mpg, DVDs or any other multimedia on my SuSE desktops. BTW I've got a windoze image under win4lin on my main SuSE system, but after firing it up initially and futzing around some months ago, I haven't bothered with it, and haven't missed it.
