I'm super excited about the new Apple products. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/monkeydance.gif)
The new Mac Mini is an awesomely compact, full featured computer. Very cool for people who are converting from windows. And only $500!

I love my Mac!
So glad I switched back to apple products after being forced to use windows in the business world. Everything I need to do on a computer I can do on my Mac and it's a hell of a lot easier and more fun. If you do go with the fm modulator get the itrip by Griffin, much better than the Belkin or others that will fit the ipod. Scott is right though you lose a little quality, direct hook up is best. Apple does encode their music in their own format to prevent pirating not so it can't be played on other players. Other players just don't support the format. BTW - I got a 40GB ipod for christmas and I love it. My whole music collection, over 4000 songs, in one little package. I can take it anywhere and listen to it in any car, home stereo, skiing, biking, wherever. It's awsome. |
