I not only approve, I'm kinda jealous, I've always wanted a cube.
Tact is just not saying true stuff. I'll pass.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Tom, I have a cube I'm trying to sell...
Huh. Well...
Sorry. This one was the best of the lot, and the auction was ending a few hours after I noticed it.
For now, it will be used to house my iTunes stuff, as the 40 Gig HD in my iBook is just too small. (The cube's HD has been upgraded to 120 Gig.) Also, maybe I'll buy a 17" Apple LCD monitor and use it as my living room computer.

Is there any facility to print out a track listing from iTunes, or an add-in application that will do so?

Yes.
There are Apple Scripts that can do that. Somewhere out in the internet there's a site that has a whole bunch of scripts and what-not - I'll see if I can find it. Otherwise, I have a script that can export a playlist to an HTML table - I could sent that to you....

All is well that ends in pizza.
Looks like Bittorrent itself is under a massive take-down effort that the MPAA/RIAA has been threatening.
Whisch is interesting as to what they had against tvtorrents.com, which didn't have movies or music.

which didn't have movies or music.
I don't think they make that distinction, Daniel, and it's just as illegal to distribute tv shows as it is movies.

A friend of mine needs a new computer; I'm trying to persuade her to buy an iBook. She likes the idea, but she has a fairly complex Word document (lots of fields for text to be entered) and it won't convert and open properly in the version of AppleWorks (6.2.6) that I have, and she doesn't want to spend the bucks to buy Word on top of a new computer.
So I'm looking for older versions oe used copies of Word to buy. Anyone know of any sources? What was the first version of Word written for OS X?
eta: Apparantly naughty people are selling already-registered copies for cheap. This seems like it could be... problematic.

Hey. New board.
Try OpenOffice.org? I hear it has pretty durned good support for fairly complex word stuff... and is free. Kind of slow, but free.
