I've watched this course online, and it's a great one. A few random comments: * It is a good idea to download the course materials from http://ocw.mit.edu/ans15436/ZipForEndUsers/6/6-046JFall-2005... * The video lectures can be downloaded if you hack the URLs a bit. Full instructions at: http://amazingstuffs.blogspot.com/2007/10/download-data-stru... , but it doesn't bode well if you can't figure it out for yourself…

For anyone else interested in downloading MIT lectures, I wrote a way to do it without using realplayer.

That still leaves you with a .rm file. Also, my method works on .rm streams that don't offer you a download option like MIT does.
