Reading emails and shopping at QVC.com would be a great candidtate for Ubuntu's netbook remix NOT the server edition...

Hmmm, I wonder if anyone has turned a netbook into a server.

[arrrghhh]

Let me re-phrase the question: Would I need to use WINE to access ITunes & keep my IPOD in synch?

If you want to use iTunes, you would need to use wine. However, there are several programs that are native to Linux that you can use to sync your iPod. Amarok, RhythymBox and Songbird are just a few that come to mind.

So how do i share the printer & then how do i find it for a windows XP mo-chine

Forgot to tel you i'm running a live cd setup

I wouldn't recommend doing this from the LiveCD. Any changes you make will be lost - if you want something permanent, install it. Then we can talk about how to share printers & talk with other machines on your network.
