    Which Windows features?

    actually the truncated sound issue ain't a bug in quicktime. AVI's were never meant to have mp3 soundtracks, to accomplish this the format was hacked so AVI-movies were able to include mp3 sound. i suggest you try out some normal (non-divx) AVI's, i'm sure they'll run fine. for your divx AVI...

    AAC + iTunes

    not quite. you can't compare image to sound file formats. image compression doesn't work with bitrates, i wonder how it would work (128 kbit per square inch? :confused: ). fact is: 128kbps remain 128kbit per second of sound. no matter what compression routine.

    AAC + iTunes

    bit rates determine overall file sizes. jeb 1138 explained it quite well.

    AAC + iTunes

    actually, it should work that way. look, when you encode a piece of music at 128kbps that'll mean that each second of the track will "weigh" 16 kilobytes (which are 128 kilobits). at 192kbps each second is 24 kilobytes in size, at 256kpbs it's 32 kilobytes. sorry, it's the maths. 128kpbs...

    AAC + iTunes

    AAC + iTunes

    who knows? mp3 is the audio file format at the moment. it'll take a lot of time for aac to become a new standard, if ever. but having the option available in itunes would be a good step nonetheless.

    Graphics Card and VRAM

    of course those 32 megs of ram on the video card are video ram. you won't be stuck with the 4 megs of the 7600.

    DVD shows those weird lines

    yep, that's a problem with interlacing. the current ATI Radeon drivers sport a feature called "adaptive de-interlacing". check out verstiontracker for the recent version.

    DivX on the Mac stinks

    tried and no, it won't work. Mac WMP doesn't recognize anything else than .wmf .wmv .asf and the like. no avi recognition.

    Star Wars games are coming to the Mac

    i enjoyed playing 'dark forces' (the prequel to jedi knight) several years ago on my old performa 5200. it's nice to see jedi knight 2 coming to the mac. i keep my fingers crossed for a decent port.
