[NTLK] Watching CNBC program on the history of Apple

[Peter Fraser]

There's an easy way for mac users to download this sort of content.  
After loading the page, open the Activity window in Safari (find it in  
the "Window" dropdown menu). Scroll til you find the page title, then  
look for a listing under it that shows a large file loading ("xyz KB  
of 123 MB"). Copy paste that line item into Safari's Downloads window  
(find it in the "Window" dropdown menu, too) and the movie will  
download to your machine.
