Can Captivate make a movie like this? (Video, Audio, Screen Capture at once)

Question

I'm looking to create software product demonstrations (web
sites and PC applications) that are engaging and easy to follow. I
found this video on YouTube that has features that I really like.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgWTFYKv0U0

Video (face shot, talking)
Video shrinks & moves out of the way (see 2:03 in the
link above)
Demo a full size webpage while video running (see 2:46)
Zoom in to a portion of the page while video running (see
4:13)

Some folks have told me I need a Mac with ScreenFlow. Only
problem is, the application doesn't run on a Mac.

Others have said use a PC with Camtasia. Still others have
suggested Captivate. No one can give me a firm "Yes! You can do
that - use this combination of software/hardware."

If you can help, I would really appreciate it!

In my opinion, you definitely could NOT do that with captivate. Think of captivate as more of a powerful screen-capture/slide-show program with interaction ability and quizzing/reporting.

Though captivate supports adding multimedia, it is limiited by only supporting project file sizes of 50 MB.
