Actually, unless things have changed and I somehow missed it, NEXTIME
costs $100.  However, attendees at last year's expo could get up to five
copies (or something like that) for $20 each.  Also, if you ordered the 
NeXTstep 3.3 upgrade within a certain timeframe, NEXTIME was included
free.

The latest version of Movie (3.0, July 31, 1995), available on ftp.cs.orst.edu,
plays a number of QuickTime formats, as well as some other stuff, like AVI,
supposedly (I can't test that).  It doesn't support sound, however.  It does
come with a sample QuickTime movie, which I played with both Movie and
NEXTIME - the colors were very different (NEXTIME looked correct to me,
but I guess I can't know for sure) and performance was not as good (not
surprising as it won't have Interceptor support), but it's something.

(As for EOF, while that's not significant to this mailing list, it costs $300.
I'm not sure why you were told $100 - at the time, I was told the EOF 1.1
_upgrade_ was $200.)
