Welcome to the forum, Doug. I have a Mac too, so I've been using the iTunes store since April as well. The best part about the iTunes store to me is its ease of use and convenience. The way they bill you for purchases is excellent.

You have a mac? This is like some sort of wonderful dream! You are now the coolest person I've ever seen. Actually, you were before, but now you're even more so!
So, what kind do you have?
I have a 15" Flat-panel iMac. It's the one with the Superdrive that was from the first batch when they were released in 2002 (if I recall the year correctly). I ordered one right when they first came out, in Jan 2002, but it didn't arrive until March. It could stand to be a little faster (it has an 800 MHz G4), but otherwise it's an excellent computer and I'd recommend it to anyone. Of course, they've since released 1 Ghz iMacs with 17" displays and Superdrives for the price I paid for mine, so they're getting cooler all the time. Buy one today.
Oh yeah, and since this is the iTunes topic, I might as well mention that the RAS BoR Vol.1 CD is now available for purchase on the Apple iTunes store (on a track-by-track basis).
What are some of your favorite RAS songs, Doug? Maybe you should post it in a different topic.
