I did post a longer reply on this topic in comp.sys.sgi.graphics.

I'm sorry if you were upset by this response.  I appreciate
your desire to see QuickTime on our platform, but the reality
of the situation is that in order for it to be a product that
you're going to be able to use, we have to invest a significant
amount of engineering effort into making it work well, and
integrated with the movie software which is already available
on our system.

Finally, SGI employs me to design and develop software
products.  SGI does not employ me to provide ship dates for
unreleased products on Usenet, and in fact many people at SGI
would get quite upset with me were I to do so.

I hope you found this answer more enlightening than the first.
