Star Wars

I went to see Revenge of the Sith yesterday morning. I couldn’t quite bring myself to go to the midnight showing Wednesday night. I’m just getting too old for that. I did enjoy the movie, and it was a good crowd. I went to the Ziegfeld in NYC. Lots of enthusiastic folks in costume, kids with toy lightsabers, and the usual contingent of NYC weirdos.

After much research and many failed experiments, I have decided that my old iPod just doesn’t want to work with my PC. I don’t know if it’s hardware, software, or some combination, but it just doesn’t work reliably. So I gave up and went back to the iBook. I reformatted the iPod on the iBook, set up iPodder, downloaded a bunch of podcasts, and synced them to the iPod. It worked great, no problems. I’m thinking about setting up my newer iPod to sync everything but the podcasts, but I don’t think that’s really necessary; there’s plenty of room on it. Meanwhile, as long as I’m using the Mac, I’m looking at iPodderX.
