Hi Donna and others,
I've already seen it. I think I'll hold off and get a Macbook pro. I don't
plan to do any traveling so I think that's a good option.

Be careful peeking at the Macbook Air. I did on Friday and wanted one,
but can't justify it since I just got a Macbook Pro a year ago. lol

Hmmm, sounds like I may need a trip to the Apple store. Well, this'll
give me a chance to peak at the Macbook Air. Oh woe is me! :)

You could also use the Apple TV for streaming all your media to your
entertainment system. The newest model is fairly inexpensive, connects
to your entertainment system using HDMI and runs on IOS4. I have the
older model which on the Mac side, through itunes is totally accessible
but at the TV side is not at all. A bit of memorizing what and where
menus are allows me to use it quite well but not accessible by any
stretch. I'm wondering if Apple will be making VO a part of the newest
model with the change to IOS4.
Just another option for you.
Later...

In my opinion getting dvds into itunes on the mac is easier than under
windows. The only down-side to using a mac as your entertainment hub
is that TV is very difficult, if not impossible to access. There
seems to be only one aplication for tv watching on the mac, EyeTV, and
it's absolutely useless with voiceover, although from all accounts
it's a cool programme! Apart from that, the mac is a good option.

Hi all,
tonight my husband and i have been talking about moving to a
computer-based entertainment system. I of course said I want our
media computer to be a Mac. Here's the question. What do we do with
our DVD collection? Can this be imported into iTunes? I'm very
curious to know what others have done.
Thanks,
Donna
