Not had a chance to watch any yet, but apparently they are very impressive!

Note: The page won't open unless you are using IE. Nice one M$!

Same thing innit. CB is just IE's rendering engine with a fancy front end on it :)

WMP9 is actually pretty good, for playing video files anyway. For playing MP3s it sucks big time.

Yes - very good quality :)

Stutters a little on my P4 1.9Ghz system though :p

Their site says minimum spec for the 720p vids is 2.55Ghz and for the 1000p(ish) vids a 3Ghz CPU...

How much are Intel/AMD paying Microsoft to display these vids? :o
