Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I want the iPod stereo. HMOG, I want it. I just haven't figured out if it would work with my 4thGen iPod.

I think Jobs said it would work with all iPods ever sold....

All iPods with a dock connector.

You can attach a Shuffle to the back. But then you're losing most of the integration, right?

Any other iPods that don't have the dock connector?

Apple's remote control software, for watching movies and playing music. Which only comes with new models, so I can't install it on my G5, even though it's sitting in my living room.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

That's incredibly lame. For some reason (probably because I didn't care enough to do the research) I had the idea that it was just the media center front end for showing slideshows and such. I didn't realize it was specifically tied to the remote.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Surely someone will do a workaround eventually.

I kind of still like the radio transmitter from the ipod to the stereo, more than purchasing a stereo just for my ipod. I have roughly a 1000 cds that will never be ripped onto my wee 6gig ipod, and I can't lose that functionality.
