Interesting that the US version of iTunes 1.0 would not install unless there
was a folder called "Documents" on the startup partition. Which made it
really difficult to install it on a German system, where this folder was
called "Dokumente" - insteresting also that it still is, while the
"Programme" folder has been renamed to "Applications (Mac OS 9)".

Go figure...
