For that matter, The latest iTunes Store videos don’t work very well either. Seriously, though… I am disappointed in general with NBC’s internet video options for my older Macs (G3/G4 models). I had to resort to watching it on my television set. I was unable to watch the Olympics on my Powerbook Duo 280c because of this lack of foresight on NBC’s part.

Tip: if your browser somehow doesn’t work with the “Click to Install” button shown earlier, you can also download Microsoft Silverlight for Mac OS X directly from VersionTracker: Download Silverlight for Mac OS X.

I don’t know where you’re getting your information from, but you can indeed watch those wonderful Olympic videos on your Macintosh - I have been doing so myself - because Microsoft has a late beta release of Silverlight for the Mac OS X platform.įurther, my experience was that with only one small glitch my browser stepped me neatly through the process of downloading and installing Silverlight so that I could jump right into the video stream without any fuss.
