Mr Skinner and new iPods

[Henri]

Interesting reply...thanks, you taught me something.

I take it that you're not having the problems with new iPods and 
iTunes 4 that are being described on many sites? And you believe AAC 
is noticeably superior to MP3?

  I'm barely functional on OSX so far, troubleshooting is my main 
weakness there (command line use scares me so far).  So I'm loathe, 
especially when hearing about so many problems, to make a change in 
what works so well for me. I have the patience to wait until I hear 
how they're resolved.  I do salute the "bleeding-edgers" for being 
brave with their time and money.

I have a 5 and 10gig now but my wife feels shortchanged, so that's 
why I'm thinking of getting the 20 and relegating the 5 to utility 
startup disk. Anyone out there using the older iPods that way? How do 
you set that up, with ccloner?
