A little iPod help...

That sucks that you can't do it on your computer. But atleast you can use your dads!
When I got my Ipod, the guy who sold it to me was very helpful! He made sure to ask me if I had XP and stuff so it'd be compatible. And then he sent me an email telling me step by step how to set up my ipod so it'd work the best according to my computer. In my expirience the Apple Store people are extremely helpful!
I love my ipod... it's the best thing ever!  :D I have 2088 songs on it now, but I still have the other over half of my CDs to add.

but lately i've been down upon my knees
not looking for a miracle
just a reason to believe"

My cousin is an Apple Store person! Hehe, and they have such a low profit margin that they can only offer you a 10% discount or something. *shakes fist*

Good luck with it!

P.S I told my brother about your problem and he said you could email them bit by bit to his Gmail account and then he'd give you his password for when you got on an XP computer- isn't he sweet!? heheh

thanks rosie, and thank patrick for me.  I have it all figured out though, I'm getting my CD burner fixed so I can put my mp.3 files on it when I'm home, and then before I start grad school i've been planning on getting a new computer anyway instead of a car.  Since I'll end up in a large city I really won't need a car.  And, I've decided to get a mac laptop (not an iBook but the other one).  I have owned a pc for 4 years and i am really dissatisfied with the customer support and tech services.  the HP people have been no help whatsoever and the people I have been calling for help lack customer service skills.  When I was on the phone with the Apple guy about my iPod, I was very impressed with how willing he was to help me, and he didn't charge me for a tech support phone call which usually costs about $50.

Being all young and in school you can probably get yourself an educational account which could give good discounts on some software, not sure quite what you get off hardware though.

I don't understand. Ipods are so expensive;how can one afford it?

yes, but which is better?  iBook or powerbook?  ibooks are definately cheaper but powerbooks have more on it.  Such a conundrum.
