IMO, it's funny and near to BRILLIANT!

I also think it's not at all 'below the belt', more like right in the kisser...

hate to spoil the fun, each time I play any of the videos they splutter along or stop but never as smooth running as I would like. As far as I am aware my applications are up to date.

not just the Mac ads this applies to youtube et al.

Doesn't UTube have a UK site?! It may just be the 'journey' from the Yanks to the Queen's land causing the delay (which is what it sounds/looks like to me). dntknw.gif

Neil, have broadband and as for the man from Memphis "be gentle" on occasions looks to me for advice not the other way round. Perhaps some of the fairer sex of TS might be a bit more helpful.

George, what hardware are you using? You might want to list it in your profile - makes it easier to respond and you don't have to keep telling us. I can barely remember exactly what all of our own household Macs have in the way of specs, RAM, video cards etc. (all of which might affect your streaming video) let alone that of everyone here! tongue.gif

Paddy, which part of the profile apart from "about this computer" would you like to see?

George,

In this instance, I think the relevant info is contained in the Graphics/Displays section of the System Profiler window [About this Mac>More Info>Graphics/Displays].  Here's mine:

[attachment=1393:Profiler...displays.png]

I also found a way to save the entire Profile as a file, under Save or Save As... in the System Profiler > File menu [you could use this to send very very detailed info to someone who asks].

George, for what it's worth, I find all the vids slow and jerky and I turn the sound off, let them load and then replay them; and I've got a nice spiffy speedy iMac. wink.gif
