If they aren't HDTV then it's not visible to the naked eye.

Am I getting bluffed by Apple?
Taken from the Apple site..

The advanced H.264 codec makes it possible for QuickTime 7 to play back high-definition video on a personal computer without additional hardware required. However, you’ll still need a G5 or equivalent Windows system to display so much media.

If you have a G5 system and the .256 codec then you'll be able to view HD quality, if you dont have those, you are (in effect) just viewing a regular high-quality movie.
