Actually, your mac did reboot after the Disc 1 install. If you weren't there you missed the' This machine will restart in 30 seconds dialog." Then your Mac rebooted, kicked out the CD, and asked for Disc 2. You weren't around so it went to sleep. After the core OS is installed from Disc 1, you are right, it doesn't need to restart after Disc 2 and/or 3.
I have a charcoal case for my 15" AlBook and it's perfect - just enough room in the side zipper pocket for the adapter, and any extra cables you might need - or even a few DVDs for the road.
I guess the M$ FUD is working on some people who don't listen or read anything except for what comes out of Redmond.
Jobs said "Our Windows iPod users asked us, begged us for iTunes."
Not Diamond Rio users begged us. Or Nike PSAPlay owners. Or Archos jukebox, etc, etc.
I'll repeat: Windows iPod owners.
If you don't have an iPod, you can STILL use iTunes, the Music Store AND use the songs on your third-party player. You just have to burn to a CD and then re-rip to whatever format your little heart desires. Then you can stick it on your player.
See, the idea is, demonstrate how easy it is when the software and hardware work together.
As to the quality issue: Some songs deserve to be bought on CD. And some deserve to be bought on the Internet. And the beauty is, no one can agree which ones are which.
And 400,000 tracks should be available by the end of October. Apple never promised that every song ever recorded would be available, but they seem to be working on it.
I'm writing this reply on a Blue & White G3 450 running 10.3 (7B59). If it'll run on this old hog, and my G4 Cube at home, I'd say it pretty close to shipping.
And my Dual Gig G4 runs 10.2.6 just fine, even with incremental upgrades from it's original install of 10.1.
Anybody want to float me the cash so I can test Panther on a Dual G5?

Actually, Apple sells some albums for less than 9.995 - I've seen some full albums for $7.92. It all depends on the length/age it seems. EXAMPLE: Jackson Browne/The Pretender
and releases Xpress for OSX which is what most current Mac graphics/design owners are waiting for. Upgrades are nice, but APPS drive hardware sales. OSX runs just fine on a Dual Gig from a year ago, but until there's a reason for IT buyers to replace the systems in graphics departments, no one will buy these. And by the way, NOBODY RUNS Quark 5. It sucks ass, broke the interface rules they themselves set up and is dogshit next to InDesign. And these won't boot into 9, and Quark runs only 'acceptably' well in Classic. Apple has the boot on Quark's neck with this release. This is all about turning up the heat. Now who wants to buy me a Cinema HD?
Long time Apple user. I learned at school on an Apple II, then played around with a 128k that a friend's dad bought to run his business on, then when I went off to college I got a Mac SE, upgraded that to a SE/30 two years later, then bought a IIci two years after that (had to have a color screen). That IIci was in daily use for almost 7 years, 3 at art school, 4 at work (Powerbook screens were too small then, hehe). I finally bought a Powermac Dual Gig last year, and it *feels* like the IIci - it's going to last a looooong time. I just sold a Pismo I bought back in 2000 o eBay in anticipation of a new 15" alBook coming out soon... Point being...Macs last. That old IIci still runs - I kept it cause it was such a great machine. * megs of RAM baby! A 100MB hard drive! Sweeet!

I've been doing exactly what the HomePod does with my Slimp3 player for some time now - and thanks to an open-source approach to their server software, iTunes support was incorporated into the software by some underappreciated and dedicated Mac enthusiasts/programmers. Kudos to them for providing a simple, elegant solution that predates this one by almost a year and a half.
I have mine plugged into the WAN port on my Basestation, pulling MP3's (all legally ripped of course) from my G4 in another room, wirelessly. Tres slick.
If you're unfamiliar with the case, Google on it. Basically this guy had a claim that Coke had let its copyright on the Coke bottle shape lapse, so when he presented an idea to Coke's marketing group using the design, HE established a new copyright on the design, with his modifications. Coke then lied and said they had reestablished the copyright in 1989. problem is, he showed them his designs years earlier, so Coke DIDN'T have the copyright. So Coke owes him millions for fraud, breach of contract, etc. according to his case.
This case effectively ends his, I suppose. Not being a lawyer I hope I'm wrong.
Actually I still have one - and even with all the new tricks users have managed to add - ATA support, 802.11b support, OSX syncing with Address Book, etc, it's still too damn big to be a PDA and too damn small to be a notebook/tablet. But I'll bet that ARM processor inside it could clean the Transmeta chip's clock at HWR.
This reminds me of Gates not knowing what the meaning of 'is' is. Or was that Clinton. Whatever. I liked Clinton so if he said it, that's cool, but if Gates said it he can go fuck himself.
Because the lawmakers are fully funded divisions of whatever corporation needs them to write a crippleware version of a law that enables them to circumvent the public outcry that caused the law to be proposed in the first place. Hooray for democracy!

Wouldn't Apple's Hypercard (and 'hypertext' links) demonstrate much of the same?

Damn! Rush - Moving Pictures is only $6.93
Also Rush - Fly By Night and Grace Under Pressure

Macs last. The price is more than worth it.
My mind was on my huge collection of legal mp3's that I can now listen to at work thanks to iCommune.
If the plug-in eanbles the use of another 'device' - why can't that 'device' be another computer? Legally ambiguities - gotta love 'em.

If you said 'cornflakes' instead of 'corflakes' it would be even funnier.
