Is there a (possible for the home amateur) way to record the sound from a DVD without the track that would go to the center-channel speaker? I need a soundtrack of WWII background, and I wanted to use the opening 20ish minutes of Saving Private Ryan, but I don't want it to be immediately identifiable, or to pull attention, so I'd like to remove the dialogue, etc. I can get this while listening by disconnecting my center speaker, but I'm wondering if there's a way to somehow filter out that track while recording.

Help?

There are rumors that Apple is going to release a Monitorless, sub-$500 Mac.

I have a really dumb question: I have an iChat account. Can I use iChat to talk to someone on AIM? If so, is there something in the iChat menu that can help me do this?

Any Filemaker Pro users about?

I have a calculated field which produces a number. I have the layout formatted so that the field is showing as a dollar amount with a dollar sign and 2 zeros. I now need to use this figure in another field (which I will send as an email. Within the field, I cannot get the formatting to have a dollar sign or zeros. If the amount ends in 50 cents, it shows as .5, not .50. Does anyone have any ideas?

Nevermind-- I think I figured it out.

anyone here have ReplayTV? opinions? it's about $50 cheaper than Tivo and seems to have all the same features. so that's why i'm asking.

Yes. At least, that's how DH and I chat during the day. (Him on iChat, me on AIM Express.) I think all you need to do is get an AIM screenname to log on with.
