[QUOTE="Avalon, post: 116965, member: 5184"] I agree...unless his mac has a serious problem, there's no way it wouldn't play the file smoothly. And 512MB is plenty for that...It's just for playback, not editing. And a 24GB AVI file (must be uncompressed, looking the size) will never ever load fast on a 1GHz PIII...actually, not even on the fastest PIV or Athlon or dual Xeon, as loading it is just a matter of disk speed, and has nothing to do with the CPU. That is a very huge file... [/QUOTE]
