Finally! I just finished both my Canadian history project and my math homework. Tomorrow is TGIF and I can't wait. But I'll elaborate on that later.
    With Apple's announcement yesterday of, among others things, iTunes 7. Now less than 72 hours after the release of iTunes 7, people are whining about it being buggy. Now while a few things are buggy, my first impression of iTunes 7 is that's it a pretty good program. A few bugs have poped up however, most of the features are intact. The visual styles are improved, as well as iPod management. My only complaint is that of the "Gapless Plackback". It doesn't seem to work as well as Apple made it out too. And then there's the issue of the skipping. It doesn't happen that often, but it's still realitivly annoying. One of the major improvements, however is the video playback. I found, in iTunes 6, video playback was, at best, very chunky. Now with the release of iTunes 7, the video playback is much improved. The nice fade out controls help as well. I like the new source list. However another coverflow leaves much to be desired. I suppose it works much better on a Mac, however I have a half-decent video card in my box here (FX 5200) and 512 RAM in there and the Coverflow still doesn't work that well. My Final comment is that download option for the Coverflow, as of right now is hideous. I have almost 70 albums in my collection, however the majority of my albums don't have the "beautiful cover art" that his Steveness promised the iPod faithful.
    I'm off to a family camp thingy tomorrow, so I won't be able to post until at least Sunday. I'll see you guys then
