I just purchaced a Macbook for my daughter as she's off to college
(required by the dept. she's in).  I'm wondering if OS X understands
the ext3 filesysystem.  In particular, will it properly handle
symlinks generated under linux?  I wd. like to give her a USB disk containing
an ext3 filesystem (that has lots of symlinks) with her 25 Gig organised classical
music library on it (done on an F8 system).

It won't, but if you samba-share the directory holding the files, connect to it from the macbook, then drop the mapped folder onto itunes it will copy and organize the files itself.
