Then don't tell them. Just say you need to update their video drivers,
and then make sure AVI and MPEGs aren't associated with the Quicktime
player. If they're that stupid, they probably won't even recognise the
Apple logo :-)

Alternatively, quote them two prices, one with Quicktime and one
without, and make the without price very much dearer!

("Its all the extra work, doncha know, reinventing the wheel and doing
things that Apple did ten years ago.")

Note: I do not condone the practise of installing software on other
people's computers without their knowledge, no matter how pig ignorant
and stupid they are.
