the fact that you simply cannot do full screen video, which makes absolutely no sense to me.

I always thought that was a stupid thing to only enable if you paid money. It gives the impression that Apple are out to screw people over since it is a fairly essential basic feature. What next? You only get mono sound unless you pay extra?

People have gotten around this "feature" on OSX by using AppleScripts which basically resize the QT window to slightly larger than your screen size. I assume you can do something similar for Windows.
