GUTTED mine was only 20GB and distraught with it's death :(

Really, the 20GB was the best one--it was the highest capacity to retain the thinner shell. And honestly, 20GB is good enough for me, anyways :) I LOVE my 3G 20GB! :apple:

The 3G ipod was the least functional because you have to move your fingers so much more to access the controls. With all of the others, all the buttons are in one place.

As for it being ugly, obviously that's just my opinion. To me, it just looks like they realized at the last second that they forgot the buttons and stuck them on. It has none of the elegance of the models that put the buttons on the wheel.

I wouldn't say button placement reduces functionality. Big whoopie you have to move your thumb 1 inch to the button. The warm red glow makes it look elegant to me, instead of a run of the mill gray circle click wheel.

Still the best laptop to come out of Apple IMO. Taken on the go, too bad I'm not around the Mac Pro.

My current setup

Wow, that is pretty cool. I don't think I can sit that far away from the main screen though. Seems you are as blind as me though, with those frickin' huge icons!

Cool to see a white monitor/tv though. I rarely ever see those. I don't think I would like one personally, but it would go great with a white MacBook and an Xbox 360.

I agree. I still think the sixth gen is the best looking one they ever made, though maybe not the best performing one. Of course, I don't have a problem with the click wheel like some do, so whatever.

That looks really cool. Did you take the picture in front of a mirror?
