[QUOTE="ToddG, post: 296188, member: 23228"] 1. If you don't need the discrete graphics card in the MBP, the regular Macbook will certainly handle all of your internet and iTunes needs. I couldn't comment on its suitability for audio editing. 2. You can authorize your new Mac to sync with your iPod and iTunes account. If you're never going to use the Dell again, you can also de-authorize the Dell so you aren't wasting one of your "slots" on a defunct system. 3. Mac OS X can read & write to FAT32. So both your external HDD and iPod are fine as-is. You [i]could[/i] reformat either or both to the Mac OS X filesystem, but then neither would be accessible from non-Mac computers. [/QUOTE]
