Maybe if they sell them for $100 and refuse to sell replacement batteries, people will get hooked on them (I know I am) and then upgrade to a bigger one (which do have replacement batteries available) when the battery dies...
I haven't tried any of those really expensive ($100+) earbuds, but the iPod's definitely sound and fit better to me than the Sony and Koss ones I have. It also probably depends a lot on the quality of the songs you're listening to...
I've got an nForce2 board working (almost) perfectly under Gentoo. It seems to be a timing issue... either your board wants to cooperate at the moment you install, or it doesn't. The only thing you can do is try it. If it doesn't work under whatever distro you're using, try Gentoo. They've built a bunch of nforce stuff into their kernel, so support for mine was out-of-the-box.
If you have an nforce2 board, you probably have a fast enough processor to compile most software in a relatively reasonable amount of time. If you do decide to install Gentoo, make sure you check out the alternate installation guide so you can play Tux Racer while it's building your system.:)

It'd have to be one LOUD hard drive to be able to hear it over the kick-ass earbuds that come with the current iPods...
