Full size 640 X 480 frames, at 30 frames a second?  Can it be done?  My  
understanding is that you can achieve roughly 1/16 of that-- in terms of bytes  
transfered per second of time.

Anything smaller than 640 X 480 (which is only barely acceptable for some  
minor-league publishing purposes), and I lose interest.

Anything slower than 8 frames a second, and I lose interest.
