Can't you just enable Windows file sharing in the G4 and connect the 
Think Pad to it?  That way you should be able to copy your whole 
iTunes folder over.  That is what I do with my mixed network.  Then 
you can play the iTunes with Quicktime installed on the Think Pad.  I 
think that should work.


Good luck

Kevin
