    I think Napster (along with some other music companies) has somehow blocked the iPod from being able to upload its songs, even with a Windows Computer. I don't think that getting a Mac will prevent you from being able to get Napster To Go, but I'm not 100% sure. If you want the best compatibility (and price), go with a Windows Notebook. I have an iMac and it suffers horribly from not being able to run programs that are able to run on Windows.
