Remember those tech-decks? Those mini skateboards all the junior high kids used to play with a few years ago? I used the screwdriver that came with them. IMO it's the best screwdri…

I see you've got the cover off so the point is moot but I wanted to respond to the comment about being charged by the Apple store. I ran into the same issue with my powerbook (and…

When I added a 1gb module to my new 15" Powerbook last night, I noticed that the screws (that did take a little force to remove) looked like they had some Loc-tite on them - the th…

Has the shuffle changed how you listen to your music? How do you listen to music on your Shuffle? I usually listen to full albums. I still do on my computer. However, when using m…

I love using the shuffle feature on my iPod. It's great to see what comes up next. You never know. It can go from some Ray Charles to Guns 'n Roses to White Zombie to Queen back…

It is like listening to the radio but they only play songs you like and no ads or talking.

I've got too many different genres on my big iPod to make use of the "Shuffle Songs" feature on the main menu. And it's too much of a hassle to switch between shuffle and sequentia…
