Is that like Bernie Mac and Freddie Mac?

use ephpod. it will require MacOpener(i think thats what it is called), and will reformat and what not for you, and you can use it to put stuff on your ipod (much better than jukebox, imho)

Isn't there an actual "Windows version" of the ipod so you don't have to go through all this?

I bought a 5 gig older model these were made for mac only in the begining... 5 gigs is way more then enough for me, and its cheaper for me this way. took me 2 minutes to flash it to windows
