I have a 2 or 3 year old HP pavilion ze4900.
Another thing I forgot to mention... I don't really know how to explain it.
You know when you open iTunes and on the very left of it, they have Library (music, movies, etc), Store, Playlists, etc.... When I pug in my touch a new one comes up labeled "Devices." And under that tab there is "iPod."
When I click on that it says: "WELCOME TO YOUR NEW IPOD! Lets get started. 1. Register your iPod. 2. Set up your iTunes store account."
