    Now if only I could set up Software Update to install the nightly build of Chimera I would be set. That and never give me an IE update again.

    ok, so I can update my MICROSOFT Internet Explorer using APPLE'S Software Update in OS X, but I can't update my APPLE iPod using Software Update. Instead I have to download it from their website?

    They used to post iPod updates on Software Update. Whats up?

    You mean like the one that appears when you click on the thumbtack button in the bottom right corner of iCal? Yeah, that would be nice.
