Good data points.  I think that tells us why there are small format
and large format videos out there.  When I put together presentations
to share over the net, I should make a small/slow as well as a
large/fast version of them, so the folks with the PII's can still
get something out of it.  Openoffice with gif animations must really
drag on that older machine ... thanks for the tests!
