iTunes and Windows

[christopher240240]

I just don't see how iTunes can integrate smoothly into my constant lockups and reboots that have come with my latest critical updates. Hopefully Apple will be smart enough to include this non-functionality into the Windows version, because if they don't I can't see this succeeding- and thus Apple will undoubtedly die.

Maybe in Cuba, where basic economic theory has been sodomized by the ruling party you could make an argument for Linux. Here in America, we need to make money.

I wish I could try this out. I really do. I have a brand new 3G 10GB iPod. Unfortunately I can't get it to work on windows, even after scouring the boards for hours. I run 98se and don't have firewire or USB2, just ol' USB1.1.

If Apple would just release some bloody DRIVERS to let my computer load the iPod as a mass storage device, I would have no problems at all. Unfortunately, since I can't get the iPod to mount as a drive, Ephpod isn't able to see it. Oh well, that's one potential customer gone......unless of course anybody has any idea what to do when my comp tries to add the new hardware and asks for drivers.
