Hi Del
I live in New Delhi. Mac support is particularly horrid in India that
is of course if there was any support. The Mac dealer recently told me
(upon my asking) that iPods will be available starting at Rs 30000
($600) and he also mentioned that the models were the 10GB, 15GB and
20GB. I asked him if he was sure about the 15GB model and he said that
he was. Now, if this was in US or some other place, I would call this
as inside information that Apple is releasing a midrange model but
here, I am sure it is the case of a misinformed dodo head of a dealer.
In a city housing more than 15 million people, I am afraid there are
only 4 Mac dealers, Apple does not advertise, 1 in a 100000 uses a Mac
and hardly a soul knows about OS X. [What the heck is "O Es Ex"?]
And if your friend hasn't had any luck with her Mac, don't expect Apple
[in Bangalore] or the local dealers to do anything about it. Rather, if
she needs any software help, you could refer her to me. I run the "Mac
OS X Mac User Group" for New Delhi but I could go as back as OS 9 if
she is not using OS X. Seems you are using AOL for Mac OS X, so you are
an OS X user. My MUG is a National-International MUG and we accept
members from all over the world. The website, currently in its infancy
can be visited at:

Warm regards
Karan
