If your car stereo (factory or otherwise) supports a CD changer, and you don't have one (or even if you do, but find yourself troubled to make CDs and replace them), you could purchase an ipod-adapter for your CD changer port on your headunit. I purchased one from http://www.icarkits.com/ and it is very good.
Fantastic, my computer won't turn back on. Verbose mode restarts the computer too fast to read anything.
I have to second Drupa - where are all these reviews coming from? Out of the 10-15 people I know who upgraded to Leopard over the weekend, at least 8 of them have had serious difficulties, including myself. I personally have gotten the notorious "blue screen" on both my C2B MBP and my PB G4. They took some time to resolve using single user mode. Several applications (about 1/3) of them failed to load, and even Apple's own applications crash after 10 minutes of use. Several libraries were compiled and linked for PPC on my C2D machine, which required a couple hours of fixing.

Also, the majority of advancements in Leopard, are trivial - GUI updates,minor functionality added, etc. I do have to give credit for "Instruments" and the newly added dtrace, which are fantastic. Also XCode is now becoming my favorite IDE. However, the updates to finder and the GUI removed functionality that wasn't as "pretty" in Tiger, but much better (i.e. placing folders in the dock to emulate an applications list; stacks is incapable of doing this, and does not do things like putting most used apps/files/etc first in the "stack"... stacks is almost useless other than for cleaning up your desktop).
Rock on Philadelphia - I will be at the Hall and Oates show at the Art Museum tonight. You should be too!
Crud - I put my appleTV in my toaster.

Google didn't seem to like it... they're slacking.
Is it just me - or does that have Dubs on the back?
Backseat DVR huh? I guess this'll make my session on makeout hill more enjoyable (I can watch Grey's Anatomy!).
Does Eddie Griffin drive this phone into a concrete barrier too?
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I am trying to configure out a really dumbed down and intuitive PC for my grandmother. She recently had a stroke and while she is under my care I would like to repurpose a laptop for her to surf and email her children. Anyone have any experience with what input devices and UI's are really understandable for the over 80 crowd?"
