though as a juke box I don't know what interface you'd like
as for the pics. what i meant is that i would just like to be able to
pull pics off a digital camera and store them and be able to send them

Inferno virtualises the OS
so, is Limbo a good place to start?...she says C...but, she also says
that someone needs to write a new language so that people who are
capable of logic and reason aren't so frustrated.
I'd go with Limbo, though your target audience is small it's a language
where you're not fiddling with memory allocation instead of solving your
problem. Learn a bit and introduce your friend to it, she might be happy
you did.
thanks all!
