It sounds extremely cool. Now one for you, Dan - what are refurbished Mac laptops like or is it worth getting one new - I want to buy a first laptop!

I've heard they are bargains to be had. Cheaper but with all the normal support.
I've always bought new before, but I would consider a refurb next time I need to upgrade

Good, because I have a choice between an iPod touch or a MacBook Pro. And I liked the look of iLife.

The one I looked at was $1799. Now that has a 2.1GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 2GB (667MHz DDR2) RAM, 160GB hard drive, DVD burner, 13.3inch glossy screen and comes with the latest whatever-it-is-now Mac operating system.
Or the one below it has all that except it's a DVD reader and a 1.8GHz IC2D processor, 1GB RAM (again 667MHz DDR2) and same screen with the latest MacOS. Sounds good for $1399.

I got some minor problems with ImTOO and the Paris DVD. I wanted to rip the videos to put them on my Zen as I did with the other DVD's. Anyway, ImTOO doesn't recognise Chapter 15 to Chapter 18 as RTSS, Party Girl, WOWY and 40. Instead, he shows I Will Follow 4 times, the 1st track of the DVD.
Anyone knows a solution?

I'm speaking of the official DVD, which you won't upload, I guess...
Anyway, it's just weird. I might rip it again from the DVD, because now I was ripping it from the VOB-files I made from the DVD, so not straight from the DVD.
