I DO use ITunes and I do store my music files on the External drive. So
... are you saying that I could use EITHER machine to sync my IPod? That
Well, I don't have any iThings (un-American, I know), so can't really
answer that one.
Could you explain a little more? My IPod is the Nano with the radio.
It's just about a year old -- the 4th Generation, I think.
As far as moving your library so you can use it on both machines,
there's a fairly detailed explanation here:

Since you've already got the *media* moved to the external, you just
need to move the *database* to it, and point iTunes to the new location.
The best part about having the database travel with the media is, if you
buy a new song from iTunes, or import a new CD on one machine, it'll
automatically show up on the other.
