- Powerbook G4/ 15.2"/ 1.67 ghz/ 2 gb RAM/ ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 (128 mb RAM)/ 100 gb hdd@ 5400 RPM
I'm currently running a PowerBook G4, last rev. (the non-"high res" model) I got the thing in late-August, and from the begining I've been using all of Quicktime's features, including the "Pro" features. I figured that "oh, my PowerBook shipped with Quicktime Pro, cool." I never bothered to check the website, so I couldn't tell you if it did ship with Pro.
In late December, I send my PowerBook in to get it repaired, as I had the lower-slot RAM issue with my logic board, before I sent it in, I was prying around my hard drive to move some things to my external and clean it up a bit. I ended up watching a few videos, in full screen (a Pro-only feature).
I get my PowerBook back after about 2-3 weeks (**** it started to feel like I'd never get it back, and now I look at it and it was so short...), and go to watch some old Apple commercials I have, go under "View" and the "Full Screen" option is grayed out. Next to it is the "Pro" icon. I click on it, and up comes a "Buy Quicktime Pro" ad.
So I'm trying to figure out if I had some really long trial, or if there's a license issue, or... what?
