Ok, well then the Apple rep I spoke to didn't explain it exactly right
then. However, the other issue I myself have is that I can't connect
an external drive and I have enough content to far exceed the ability
of the internal drive. So, if they'd allow one to hang a drive off the
unit, that would be perfect.

Apple TVs have built-in hard drives, either 40gb or 160gb depending
on which one you get. You can put content from your iTunes library
on it, and thus it doesn't need access to the library constantly. In
this way it functions much like an iPod, but with more features.
Unfortunately there's no accessibility features on the Apple TV as
of yet. I don't have one, or I'd try to hack VO into it just for the
fun ot that project.

The only problem with Apple TV as I see it is the ability to put
your own content on it. You must stream/download it from an iTunes
library which means you'd have to leave a machine up all the time
in order to share the iTunes library.

Apples solution for this btw is apple tv.
So let me get this straight, because I didn't find a good
description of what Apple TV was. Is it like a receiver that you
would hook up to a TV and transfer stuff from computer to it to
play on your TV? Does it only work with hd tvs? Also, is there a
s-video connection from Apple TV? Finally, is it true that Apple
TV can't be accessed by us?

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a
thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot
possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible
to get at or repair.
