Hmmm ... the new Microsoft Windows XP firewall just blocked Apple iTunes. Interesting.
So far, the Service Pack 2 has made Outlook Express run funny, too. And it doesn't recognize that I have a current anti-virus program (Norton). It also made me reinitiate the Windows Media Player. It hasn't affected my Firefox Web browser yet, but it does seem to have improved my wireless home network connection.
Nonetheless, I can hardly wait until I have the money to buy an Apple machine. The new iMac G5 looks hot. The only thing it lacks is DVR, the only reason I'd even consider another Windows machine.
