Correction, you have a defector!

Here's a list of Apple products I have:

Mac Plus
Mac II
Mac Plus SE
PowerMac 650
Quadra 800
G3/300
G5
PowerBook 180

Just name a few.

I hate iPods because they don't do enough for what they cost. An Archos Gmini 400 is the same size as an iPod, yet has a color LCD screen. Not a lame iPod color screen for photos, but one for playing videos. 20GB. Plays MP3s, not lame protected MP4s or AAC files. Has a built-in compact flash reader so it can act as a digital wallet. Hook it up to a computer via USB and it appears as an external hard drive. Plus, it plays video games!

The videos I transfer to my computer from my ReplayTV via DVArchive and use Lathe to convert the MPEG1s into DivX files. I can now play them on my Treo 650, as well!

My issue with Apple is the same I have with Sony. And Microsoft. And Harley-Davidson. Etc, etc, etc.
