Bit out of my price range right now, Robyn, but thanks for the suggestion (and thanks for the copy of iTunes 1, I haven't had a chance to try it yet). I would rather stick with what I have than spend that much at this particular time - and I am loathe to spend that much on a hard drive that I will likely never be able to use on any future Mac. I mean, that bugs me. How much cash is going down this hole? I start to feel that way at around the $200 range. Because that's where all the 'new Mac' accessories tend to begin. I keep thinking 'If I spend that now there's one more accessory that I'll be giving away when the new Mac comes, and one less I will be able to buy to use with it.' Anyway I'm so bored today that I'm just sitting here answering everything at length, and probably giving the unintended impression of 'taking over the list' so I'll just go away for awhile and talk aimlessly at the first person I can find, boring them ultimately to tears with Mac stuff. Have a nice weekend, all.
