So Nicko, since the same methods are used against organized crimes groups and arms dealers, as mentioned in the OP, should we shut down these law enforcement tactics too?

Does anyone know if theres a way to manage the folders on your iPod? Specifically the music and video folders. I uploaded all of my music and for some reason, I have duplicate fo…

I've had the same problem on my nano with multiple folders for the same artist. I'm not sure how to compile them. It's a bit annoying. Any help would be appreciated!

There are no folders for music on the iPod -- not in the traditional sense. Your music is organized entirely by its ID3 tags. So if you have several entries for one artist, they mu…

Yup, I spent about 20 minutes today going through my iPod, renaming a bunch of songs, and eventually elminated all of the redundant folders. It's really nice how easy it is to sel…

I'm sure this was talked about before in other threads, so if you got a link please post. I currently have 2 large folders with about 16 gigs of music in each. What I'd like to d…

Is there any 3rd party alarm I can use? The built in one would never wake me up.

Whatever you do, don't ask whether the Mac Pro is going to have Blu-Ray.

If there is not an official thread on this question, here it is. I am trying to decide whether or not to save my pennies for August, or if I will have to wait until 2nd generation…

For some reason I'm getting this vision... The signal is very strong...

Of course. It's also going to have SHARKS... with LASERS!

I also understand that the MacPro with have Snake on a Plane. In all seriousness though, I doubt the debut of the Mac Pro is going to have blu-ray. Blu-ray just BARELY hit the ma…

Very doubtful it will have blu-ray. The write speeds of BD is down right crappy at the moment. Perhaps we will be surprised, but at this moment in time, I don't think BD is ready f…
