Please note that you not only need a fast enough cpu for watching movies
but also a fast graphic cards (both in drawing (aka hw scaling) and io speed)
and a fast motherboard. It can be that even a athlon 2GHz is too slow if
you have just the cheepest components around it.

On the other hand even a PII 400 can be fast enough if you use good 
components.

PS: yes, i'm using a PII 400 with good components :)
