Hi! Does anyone know where I can get a copy of QuickTime for Windows? Is this being distributed on Apple's "normal" method of system software, or is this explicitly a for-purchase product. If it is freely distributable, is there a FTP site that has it yet? Thanks! MJH92 (mjh4@crux1.cit.cornell.edu)

The announcement I got (which, of course, I can no longer find. :-/) implied that it would only be released on one of Apple's QuickTime Development CD's, at, I belive just at $250.00, with a more complete version (presumably with much examples, etc.) available at ~$450.00. If anyone hears of this being publiclly available for free, please (!!!) feel free to correct me; I'm hoping to be wrong on this one. -C -- -->Chad Phillip Brown<--||INTERNET:---->yandros@Athena.MIT.EDU ------------------------||NeXT:---------->yandros@milo.mit.edu -->Student Information<-||UUCP:-->mit-eddie!mit-athena!yandros --->Processing Board<---||BITNET:------>yandros%mit.edu@mitvma ----->CSSConsultant<----||US:--->19 Myrtle;Somerville MA;02143 -------->IS-DCNS<-------||Voice:----------------->617-623-0877

That would be interesting. All Apple's CDs are in Macintosh HFS format, which means you're going to have an interesting time trying to read them from a machine running Windows. So how you're going to get the player software onto a Windows machine? Yeah, I know, copy them onto DOS-format floppies from a Mac running Apple File Exchange, or DOS Mounter, or something... I wonder how much of Windows they had to reinvent...

I normally don't say much, but IMHO, your statement is dumb. Don't you think Apple has enough intelligence to release Quicktime for Windows on a CD-ROM that can be read on a PC running Windows? Think before you speak! Flame off... PCH -- Peter C.

Luckily I'm a polite, tactful person who doesn't like to call people idiots for shooting their mouths off without thinking.
