Jobs will never respond, just like he refuses to advertise on Rush's show. He doesn't want to spoil his image among the left by associating with the unwashed masses in the red states. Buy my ipods, sure, but actually be seen talking to you? Please...

I keep telling Rush to upgade to XP PRO.

Back to my Mac, screen sharing, doesn't work. It's intermittent on occasion. Now, I got six computers on the network, maybe it's only meant to go back and forth one computer to the next. And the second thing, and this is the biggie, because I have found a work-around to screen sharing back to my Mac not working, direct access to my IP address I can do it without Back to My Mac, but they've got this great new backup program called Time Machine.

I can't address the Mail.app problem because I use Entourage, but I use Back To My Mac all he time without problems. Because BTM operates over the Internet, I bet that Rush's problem has to do with access through his station's corporate firewall. Ports need to be opened up to allow use of this feature.

I just ordered six brand-new Mac Pros: four for me and two as gifts; maxed out, Blu-ray drives

So, uh, how do I get on his list?

I bet that Rush's problem has to do with access through his station's corporate firewall.

Accessing by IP works, but Back To My Mac doesn't. BTMM is an implementation of dynamic DNS, so it's very likely that something's blocking the dynamic DNS resolution even if access by IP is allowed.

Apple calls Rush.
