I read a press release for Quicktime 2.3 (due to developers this month :)  
and Apple claims that with this new version of their extension one can
get 15 fps at 640 x 480 on an LC 475! and Full motion (30 fps) at the next  
screen size down.... 

	That's decent for a low horsepower machine.  Whether or not this  
proves itself in practice, we'll see...

	But the real point of this post revolves around apple's  
announcement that QT2.3 incorporates MPEG technology... That's right, now,  
instead of needing to convert MPEG to QT, Macs will be MPEG savvy.  It  
also mentions that you'll be able to encode MPEG's (with sound) with your  
Mac...
