Something's hinky with my iBook. Neither iTunes nor Finder can see my iPod when I plug it in (so I can't update the playlists on the iPod which I'm wholly tired of, plus there's way too much Xmas music on there). When I try to download software updates it's getting stuck at install (waiting for local disks). Disk Utility crashes instantly whenever I try to open it. Tonight a CD got stuck in the drive and wouldn't eject. I had to boot into firmware to get it out. Boy howdy was that a thrill ride... At least it worked. So I guess I'll have to take it into the shop, as it were. Hopefully it's only a minor meltdown and not some terminal illness.

feh!
