CBC is the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. You're pulling my leg (and rambling).

It is true. On my computer from with specs from 2000 running on XP things are a LOT slower now. Look at CS, it used to run butter smooth, now its choppy. The same videos that ran butter smooth on the computer are now choppy as shit on the "new" media players.

He is completely right.

Not only memory, but filesize as well. Look at stuff like Quicktime. Download the installer and you'll be looking at a 70 meg install. 70 megs for a goddamn media player!
