i dont think that would work too well for HD content. With the coreavc decoder, you could probably manage 720p files, but 1080p would be out the window.
I'm not even sure about that, because coreAVC is designed to be multithreaded - the P4's i tested on had Hyperthreading, so they got a fair boost out of it.

Home

1) BBC Micro (6502 Proc @ 2 Mhz)
2) Acorn Archimedes A3010 Arm 250 CPU (Yes it had an ARM chip running at a monstrous 12MHZ, was a RISC chip too)
3) Gateway 2000 (!) P5-90 with Socket 5 motherboard (no L2 cache etc) :( First PC! Eventually phased out with 200Mhz Overdrive Chip and a few memory upgrades.
4) PII 266 64MB Ram...
5) P4 1.8GHz 512MB Ram...
6) P4 3.4 Ghz... 1Gb Ram
7) Current system QX6850 @ 3.0 Ghz.
8) Cell Microprocessor + 3.2 Ghz (PS 3 :D:D)

School

1) Various BBC Micro (6502) / Acorn Archimedes computers that the school had at the time
(Arm chips a plenty!)
2) 386 sx/dx
3) 486 - various flavours
4) Pentium 200

University

1) Pentium 2 300/333/400/450 etc up to P3 933 Mhz
2) Pentium 4 1.8 - 2.0 ghz - strangely they never had anything faster than 2.0Ghz for the students to use.

Macs

Brother has a heavily upgraded SE/30... couldnt tell you what the exact spec is but is definately not standard.
Various Macintosh from ii/iix all the way up to Powermac G5 (school/uni etc)

Loans have included:

Sinclair Zx Spectrum
Commodore 64
Acorn Electron

Intel Pentium w/ MMX - 300MHz
Intel Pentium Pro - 200MHz (OC by some amount, but I can't remember that anymore)
Intel Pentium II w/ MMX - 400MHz (lasted me until 2001-03 or so, don't remember)

*no rig for a while*

Intel Pentium 4HT 3.06GHz - (OC to 3.9GHz)


I have to update my earlier list, there:

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz - (OC to 3.6GHz)

I've also run across these while cleaning stuff up over the last couple of months:

AMD K6-2 - 300MHz . . . funny, I don't ever remember owing an AMD - boy was I surprised reading that after cleaning that green TIM off the CPU :twitch:
