As I recall, I've seen many cases, that Windows user was either unable to watch the movie I've sent/borrowed to him/her or had many problems with installing correct codecs (or even finding them). Did you have similar experiences? If the answer is "yes" - well, here's one more point for "FreeBSD on desktop" advocates: users encounter less problems with movies while running FreeBSD. I know, that mplayer runs on variety of *nix operating systems, but - who cares... we don't have to say that :) What do you think? Regards, -- Michal Pasternak :: http://pasternak.w.lub.pl
