Looks jerky too on a 1.4 GHZ, 512 MB RAM Win98 System...
Perhaps some good old MPEG-2 would have been sufficient?
In any case, if you get files > 1 MB, you can always just post
a link here.

Aside of all that, the animation looks pretty interesting, but
not very useful. I cannot see the effect the intruder galaxy has
very well. All in all, that camera-movement isn't too bad, but
now the animation is missing the actual interesting parts...
