JAH, i think that you have answered your own question, just go get the Dell thing. Support your loyalties, they have been good to you, pay them back, buy something else from them.

Now, i have to say that i would NEVER even consider buying a Dell product, and i have NEVER heard of someone so satisfied with there stuff.... sooner or later you will find out way. Oh, and sure they fixed their mistake, but the reason people hate dell so much is because they have so many issues with there stuff that it became practical to have door to door service calls, don't think thats cheap, they think if they can get you to like them for it, youll buy another product from them.

Yes i am a Mac user, and wouldn't have it any other way. (By the way, my current Mac here is almost 8 years old, still running strong with Mac OSX, never had any problems with it at all... except its almost 8 and apple doesn't support it, so i had to hack OSX on it with XpostFacto)

I am getting an iPod very shortly, i am just waiting to apple's world wide dev conference to see if they update the iPod, otherwise i am getting a 40GB iPod for use as an iPod and a portable HD. But if i didn't have 500 to blow on it i would get the 15GB ipod. iPod mini isn't worth it, 4GB is a lot of music (around 2 days of 192 AAC), and for $50 more you can get a 15GB iPod, if you ever fill that you need to watch for the RIAA on your back... think about how much money that would be if you bought all that...

Now that you have heard that bias information, go back and reread the first part of my post.
