Damn Susan, that really sucks. I can see Apple getting a little weird about you presenting on a PC and the whole new iLife thing they have is kinda geared towards personal media publishing and I can see how they might want to start pushing that. They're trying to sell their stuff not

No, I don't--that's the one I just sold on ebay. Don't fret, though--if I can get a cam that actually works, the five second increment videos--or maybe ten seconds this time--will continue. Susan http://vlog.kitykity.com --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Markus Sandy [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I tend to find Mac bias in the world of podcasting/vlogging is a little frustrating too. I don't appreciate being used as a marketing tool for Apple. I use their products sometimes, but I also use a PC a lot and I don't really think that open media should be owned by a single hardware platform.
