Now, which sense of "present" is that?
Is it [pri-zent] — as in, to present the current movie — or [prez-uh nt] — as in, to do something with the present movie.
Both senses can work equally well, and I can't decide which Apple probably intended.
I know this is totally inane, but this kind of shit bothers me. Help me out here.

That's the dialog I get because I don't have QT Pro. So, I guess it would be [pri-zent].

Oh, I thought it meant they were giving you a present -- in this case a movie but also the gift of a note topic that once again helps humanity be a little clearer. In these tiny ways, Rich, you are improving the world.
