Is there a player besides Real Player that will play .ram files.  Real is one of those apps that 
has porked out and hogged resources until it won't run or will barely run on older hardware even 
though you have lots of RAM.  I'm talking a 233 or a 500 with a couple of hundred MB.  On Winders 
this happened around version Real G2 or 8.  I never bothered to try it on Linux.
