Hi WAMUGgers
Quicktime 7 is now available for download via Software Update. It
looks good.
Just don't expect to be able to play H264 movies on a G4 400 :-/
Oh, they load and pretend to play, but you can't see any action, just
the first few frames before they sag and die...
For the first time, I truly cannot do everything I need with this
machine. Time to go up, finally.
I have to report that the Quicktime HD trailers are absolutely gorgeous
in 7. (Running on 10.3.9 at the moment.)

When I first viewed a regular DVD on my screen it was visibly
pixellated and I was disappointed before I realized DVD are at most 720
pixels horizontal. However those previews I mentioned are HD at 1280
pixels wide. Also resizing the video window was extremely responsive,
reminded me of Phil's demo's at the WWDC roadshow.
The Serenity preview even has a "1080" version which I haven't tried
but I assume is 1920 pixels horizontal.
Cheers, Glen Low
