Video Notes
Presently missing movie files are expect to be available by mid December 2001.

The quicktime (.mov) files have fairly large sizes as they run for 30 to 45 minutes. With a T1 connection they download reasonably fast, but for telephone modem connection, transfer would be very slow. For modem connections to the internet, FTP file transfer to a local disk drive is recommended, and then play the mov file from that disk. Quicktime 4 or 5 installed on your computer is needed. These programs can be downloaded free from www.apple.com, the Pro version ($30) is recommended as it provides true full-screen movie display. An mpeg-2 reader program is needed to view those files, which are generally of smaller size than the mov files.
