My 1600 plays HuluDesktop fine in flash.  Granted it's not the 480p HD
stream, it's the lower quality one.  But no skipping and CPU is only 85-90%,
not fully maxed when doing it.  My kids have been watching old cartoons
lately on it, that my wife and I grew up with (they're too young to make fun
of me yet).  I will say, it got much better with 10.1 rc3 I believe.  Before
that it could lag a second or 2 here and there.
