    So I just got my new macbook, and overall I LOVE it. However, I just went to youtube to check out some HD videos and check out the screen on this thing, and I noticed that even once the entire video was downloaded, I still got little pauses and hangs during the video. Can the 9400m not handle playback of 720p video? I was under the impression it could handle it easily. Is there something I'm not doing right, or is it an effect of watching it through Safari?

    Thanks!

    I am downloading and watching HD YouTube videos just fine in Firefox. Don't know if it might be a browser issue or not.
