I'm not taking this any further, but I do want to comment on the forums and the double space between sentences issue. I, too, put two spaces between sentences and when you post your response the forums software takes one of them out. Why is that? Does it not like it? Yet, when I quote spooky, the double spaces are in the quote. It makes no sense.

Actually I wasn't. It really does bug me that the forum software does that.

Once one masters standard writing, one can deviate as they wish. Or fail.

I'd like to point out that the only media player on there is the ipod. wtf? did mp3 convert from a file type to a media player when i wasn't looking? And napster?

secondly, if you aren't smart enough to figure out how to get around itunes "drm" then you aren't smart enough to be using their shit to begin with.

and we don't care if you buy apple stock spook.. what was that about getting a new mac for you-know-who? $$$

and also, new macpro... hottest...thing...ever.
