How to upgrade to a new Mac: "The new Mac OS X Setup Assistant lets you upgrade to a new Mac from another Mac OS X machine." Pity that this software is (for now) only available for the new G5 PowerMac systems. This solution would be ideal for upgrading my iBook and PowerBook. So far every upgrade has been a bit of a hassle, because transferring all necessary files from the old system without overwriting the new things has demanded a lot of attention to details. But I'm not making my upgrade in a hurry. Autumn would be the right time to upgrade my iBook, and Spring to upgrade the PowerBook. Perhaps a PowerBook G5 will be available then.

Ripping to iPod -- Comment()
iPod popularity may put a damper on copy-protected CDs: "For the first time in the US, a copy-protected music CD has hit #1 on the charts. However, some consumers are complaining that they can't rip the tracks to their iPods." [Ars Technica] So far I not run into a cd which I couldn't rip into my iPod. I even ripped a copy-protected disk by Anastacia without trouble. But this may be due to the fact I'm using an iBook, not a PC.
