Anyone out there know how to fix the “iTunes Library file could not be saved (error -1450)” that happens under windows? I’ve seen a couple of posts about it, but nothing useful, just a bunch of “realplayer rocks/sucks – itunes rocks/sucks” arguments. Nothing on the Apple support site either.

New hardware is coming along. Other than sounding like a 747 taking off, it’s a sweet box. Sadly the default Gentoo install CD didn’t include all the right drivers needed to boot up properly, so I burned an Ubuntu install CD and plan to do a standard Gentoo install via chroot from a minimal install.
