Well if it is a Quicktime issue, then it is Apple's problem. Don't see anything wrong with that.

I agree. Microsoft can't control all the software that is written to run on their OS.

Heck, they can't even control their OS very reliably...

Although is IS disappointing that they couldn't write the webisite differently so that it works properly.

To presume Apple and the Mac to be perfect and Microsoft the root of all evil would be a great mistake. One must learn from one's weaknesses and failings in order to move on and overcome them...

I don't know what that problem is. It just says "problem with Quicktime." Well, it is Apples issue, but who is to say thaat it can't be a compatibility issue?

Do you remember years ago when apple sued microsoft because quicktime was doing poor performance because some strange code in windows?
Now it's apple's fault? I really don't think so.
