I wanted to do something a little different for Tech Thursday. Instead of a tangible piece of technology, I want to rate an online system.Netflix "Watch Instantly"
You can finally watch Netflix movies instantly on Mac computers. But there are a few system requirements you need before you begin. You gotta have an Intel-based Mac with OSX, use the internet browsers Safari or Firefox (who's not using Firefox these days), and at least a GB of ram. Other than that, your good to go.
When you add movies to your Netflix queue, certain movies have a play now button next to the title. Most of the older movies or animations will have this option. When you click play for the first time, a program will download. Then the browser will check your internet settings and start playing your movie. I thought I'd give it a try and watch "Justice League: The New Frontier". It was a pretty good movie and the system worked really well, eventhough my wireless connection was cutting on and off all day. If you lose your connection you can click the refresh button and it will start from where you left off. Pretty awesome, huh. Be mindful that I was watching the movie on my iMac with 4GBs of RAM and cable internet.
So, if your looking for some entertainment on your comp and movies in your mail, get Netflix.
