Question Converting Mov files
I got some video files.mov that I'd like to watch but I am not installing quicktime. Is there a way to convert them or a very small app to play them?

Freeware would be nice.
Thanks
Cowboy

I'll follow the thread to see what else is recomended.
Yeah, almost 12 mb seems a little large, but I haven't noticed any drain on resources, and I'm on 98se

I thought for sure I saw a convertor program or plugin to view MOv files that was small in size?

Should have grabbed it when I had the chance.
