Well, yeah... but I have everything on my mac, so that would have worked... now I have to duplicate it to the old lappy.

unless there is something that I can run on my mac that would be compatible with a mp3 player...?

Amen, brother!!  :halo:

I still remember a convo with a boss, I stated that the bible couldn't be taken literally, but more in a figurative sense: 'try to not be dicks to each other'.  He said that every word in the bible was the literal word of god-- I said 'what about the multiple versions of creation' ... well, his answer is 'that is just how it is'.  No questioning, just blind 'faith'.  Whatever, I dig.  Some people need/want that.
 
Yeah.  And I've gotten to the point where I am saying things like..."That's how it is."  I say..."Prove it."
 
I can't amuse myself enough when thinking about organized religion. However, then i conclude that those people can be really violent, and suddenly it ain't funny anymore.
 
I agree.  Completely, and I am very glad that the atheist groups in Canada and US are getting more and more vocal.

Ever hear of amarok?  Looks like thats what I'll need to sync the kids' mp3 players-- I really wish their mom had gotten them ipod's, cause it would have been a lot easier to have us both running itunes... oh well.
I use amarok occasionally as it can upload the stuff I play to last.fm - however, if your not connected to the 'net (like when I dial in to work - lan is disabled), it won't submit your played tracks as it does not cache them. Rythmbox Music player does. And Open Office should already be on your Ubuntu.

I can't say I have tried any IM software on Ubuntu so no help from me there. But if you do a google on Wine and iTunes, it seems you can run iTunes on Ubuntu - but I would be a little cautious in doing it. Wine is a windows emulator that allows you to run Windows apps on Linux and it does work with some apps but not all (http://www.winehq.org/).

And something to think about, if you use the Add/Remove tool to add and remove software, it is a little easier than uncompressing tar balls, compiling the code, etc., etc.

Not necessarily. Since Ubuntu is based on Debian, it also features dpkg and apt systems. Meaning that you can install, upgrade or deinstall a program with one command in console, or one click in GUI frontend such as aptitude, synaptic, etc.
 
And the balance is held by people like me, who are completely illiterate and need to have binary jokes explained to them. :D
 
Well, there are only 10 types of people in the world.  Those who understand binary, and those who don't?

Isn't it nice to have some fluent people in all OS's here?

YEah, I do love it!!  My biggest problem is that I only understand about half of what you guys are saying... sometimes I have to go to google or wiki, type in some of the things you say, and figure it out....  

@Albie, yeah, Open Office was on there.. i figured that out after I downloaded it again  :lol:  -- but at least, when i was reading about it, I found out that Ubuntu was debian-- tho i still don't know what that part means yet.
