POLL: How do you sort your music?

Why not just redo all the id3 tags and use iTunes? It's easier to browse/search music in iTunes than navigating by folder and file names.

Want to play around with a Mac...

That's very cool, Tony! If goku accuses your company's CIO of being a wasteful idiot who lacks pubic hair, please ignore him. OP, the base level iBook is $100 cheaper and comes with Airport Extreme now (it was previously a build option costing more $) and Apple won't be releasing new...

Want to play around with a Mac...

Want to play around with a Mac...

You can't compare a whole platform to the offerings of one company (Apple). Now, we can compare the relative merits of Apple's compared to Dell or eMachines if you'd like. Essentially, the PC industry is a horizontal market where the OS, platform, storage devices, displays, etc. are all made...

Want to play around with a Mac...

12" PowerBook user chiming in here. OP, http://www.barefeats.com/ provides benchmarks comparing various Macs so you can see the difference that hard drives and CPU clock speeds makes between the PowerBooks. goku, if the PC platform can cover everything you use a computer for cheaper and...
