A podcast about all things Macintosh. For Mac geeks, by Mac geeks. Episode 161. A lot of rumor and speculation has surrounded what moves Apple might make in the “television” space. Some think Apple will have a full blown Apple TV set and cable like TV service maybe by this time next year. The thing is, Apple has a great TV product now and a lot of people (probably you) have one. I thought it was time to go back an look at the current Apple TV and see how it works and what it can do for us today.

A podcast about all things Macintosh. For Mac geeks, by Mac geeks. Episode 160. If you follow Apple or even technology somewhat closely you are probably aware of the buzz centered around “wearables”. Everyday it seems there is a company or a new Kickstarter project devoted to some device we’ll attach to our body and connect to our smartphone. Accepting the fact that “wearables” the next big thing, does Apple need to get into the “wearables” category? Should it be with an iWatch?

A podcast about all things Macintosh. For Mac geeks, by Mac geeks. Episode 157. I have been reading a number of articles from designers and user interface experts arguing over the design of iOS 7. The conversations have been fascinating and opened my eyes to what I think is a deeper understanding of what Apple is trying to achieve with the next generation of iOS.
