I have a 1GHz 17" PowerBook with 1GB RAM (max for that Mac) and sites like
abc.com and cwtv.com and hulu.com stutter for me on that computer, even when
my browser is the only thing running. nbc.com is more or less okay, most
youtubes are okay, nothing is as smooth as it is on my dual 2.0GHz G5 (which
is no spring chicken either).
