Mainly it means you can play video without a lot of rendering. Most NLEs will play realtime. Factors that affect that are the choice of your edit codec (DV or DVCProHD for instance), the speed of your edit computer, and the speed of the hard drives storing the video files. If you search the Cow, you'll find more threads than you'll want to read about suggested edit systems.
