Animate Explode - slow down?

I'm trying to make a nifty animate explode / collapse, to show how to build this little gizmo. It seems like no matter how many steps are in the explode, it will only give you 8 seconds, so more steps = much faster movement.
Can I adjust that? ie, 2 seconds per step or something?

Also, is there a way to export that into a .avi file or something?

Thanks

The Explode/Collapse animation has very limited functionality. To get better animation results, you will need to use the SW Animator add-in.
