How did you download it to the desktop?

I tried, but it began playing almost immediately and then froze as soon as I hit Cmd-period. When I finally hit cmd-opt-esc it dropped into MacsBug. (I had assumed that the boxes labeled 240, 320 and 480 represented bandwidth, so to be on the safe side, I had chosen the 240 box. I have ADSL).

So I went back to <www.apple.com/powermac/>, to see if there was any way I could save the video to disk. If I selected "Save link to disk" I simply got a 20K html file.

So I clicked the 240 box again and the QuickTime window opened again inside the IE window. I immediately stopped the play-back, but that appeared to stop the loading as well. So I moved the little ball along the slider to the end. Then I saved it as a Web Archive. All sorts of little things were being saved, into a 180K IE web archive file. I tried to change the creator to something else with File Buddy, but I didn't know what to use. So I launched it as it was and it immediately crashed my mac again.
