why coudnt a g5 do youtube? its just flash.... which is one of the simplest forms of animation on the web
Flash isn't a form of animation; it's an interpreter which mostly decodes video itself. The video can be in a number of other codecs, but because Flash generally doesn't have any sort of heavy video playback optimization or offload to video hardware (except on certain brand new Mac video chips), it's dreadfully inefficient. Obviously Quicktime is much more optimized to play video.
