A fast connection to the Internet -- such as T1, DSL, or cable modem -- will greatly enhance your experience in viewing our rich media content. If your connection is slower - a 28 or 56k modem, for example - you will experience lower quality sound and video, this is due to the current limitations of the streaming media technology.

There is a known issue with Microsoft’s Windows Media Player 9 Series Beta. Please upgrade to the most recent version of the Windows Media Player.
The current version of the codecs used to convert to the Windows Media format is not supported on the Mac OS X operating system. Even though Microsoft supports this third-party codec in the Windows Media player for Mac OS Classic (version 8/9), Microsoft does not intend to update the Windows Media player for Mac OS X to support this third-party codec. Users of Mac OS X therefore will not be able to access these encoded webcasts. Please select the Real Player option if available.
