I just ran a couple of tests here.

G4 1.25GHz playing YouTube in Safari: slideshow, unwatchable
G4 1.25GHz playing the same FLV file (downloaded from YouTube) in VLC: perfect FMV

Now the one that surprised me, same results on my G4 700MHz.

Technically, it's not "watching videos online" at that point, and adds a bit of work if you want to watch YouTube, but the hardware can handle the video.

I assume OWB uses a similar method to play YouTube?

Simple. When I enter YouTube and select a movie, the script included in OWB adds view (and download) options below the inactive Flash object. Then I select viewing, Flash object gets replaced with internal player.


Sounds better than the method I used on OSX.
