First off, the origami is the 2006 version of the Newton. Remember the marketing videos? Most importantly, did you notice the Mac mini in the video? Approximately 10 seconds into the video, when the actress plugs in her guitar and changes the amp volume, right below the amp is a Mac mini. It...

Not a problem. You can set preferences in iTunes for each individual iPod. For example, you could set your 60gb to sync all songs and have the shuffle only sync a single playlist. Tim

I agree. Delete the World of Warcraft folder, re-install from the original media, and re-patch. Your characters are stored on the realm servers so you will not lose them. The only thing you will lose are some interface preferences like 'show buff duration'. Good luck and see you online! Tim

I can only confirm part of this: On the iPod photo, you can select a playlist to play during the slideshow. You can also copy the settings from iPhoto. I don't know if you can select a single song from the iPod photo. I don't know about the photo album. Nothing is said in the user guide...

Sure enough. Page 33 of the Getting Started manual states that the AV cable can be connected to either the headphones port on the iPod photo or the Line Out port on the dock. Good catch. By the way, the docs also say you can watch slideshows with photos and music. Cool. Tim

The Apple Store Mayfair (Wauwatosa, WI) has about a dozen iPod photo 60GB in stock tonight. I grabbed one immediately. The cashier said I was the first to buy. :) The color screen is great. The GUI is very Panther-like: platinum title bar and spinning spoke wheel (whatever it is called). The...

Thanks, I got it. But I did mark up the drive bay a bit... Tim

Does anyone have some good pictures of what the latches over the DVD drive look like? I can't seem to catch them with my screwdriver. I have visited these two sites, but they don't give enough info of how the latches work: http://www.quickertek.com/al15whip.html...

Count me in. I'm currently playing Star Wars Galaxies, but I'm willing to give up my wookie bounty hunter for a WoW character on day one.

Apple's DVI -> ADC adapter will do the trick. I am using a Windows XP box at work successfully with a Cinema Display 22". Tim

If you have an DVI connector, the $99 Apple DVI -> ADC converter is great. If you only have a VGA connector, Gefen makes a VGA -> ADC for $299. Tim

The iPod Software Updater allows you to reformat the iPod (removing all music and files). Get it at: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=122014 Tim

You can put a standard AirPort card in the Dual 867. This card will then work with any AirPort or AirPort Extreme base station. But don't forget, the original AirPort max speed is 11Mb (as opposed to the AirPort Extreme max speed of 54Mb). Apple has not delivered an AirPort Extreme card in...
