  I run Linux on my daily driver, but I’m addicted to the click wheel iPod and I use this machine because of iTunes.

    I wish I still had my click wheel iPod…

      You can pick up refurbs with 1T solid state drives.

    I have two absolutely gorgeous Nanos with zero battery bulge and not a single device that can run iTunes. I even have the 30 pin cable. Once upon a time I would’ve used the family PC but that thing has more viruses than the hospital thanks to my little sister.

      I like using my own library of MP3s and knowing that for at least a small amount of time, I’m not being tracked in terms of what I’m listening. My clickwheel has a solid state terabyte so I just threw everything onto it.

      If you long to use those nano-s, there are some cheap old Mac’s showing up on eBay or Craig’s list sometimes.
