Sorry Geeks, I know I owe you a show and I am working on it. It’s now 12:34 AM on Tuesday morning and I just finished prepping a BIG show. The bummer is, I am fighting a cold and I think I should get some rest. I am sure the show notes will grow tomorrow, so look for a mega-MacCast on Wednesday. Thanks for your patience.

Apple, please no big news today. OK?

The Penny-Arcade, http://www.penny-arcade.com, is a great web comic that mostly focuses on gaming. Of course we know that most gamers are also PC users, but it looks like Tycho and Gabriel (the guys behind Penny-Arcade) are becoming switchers. They sat down and actually used a Mac for a week and have confirmed what I always try to explain, but seems so elusive unless you just use a Mac. As Tyco writes in his latest post, “What I have ascertained is not that PCs as we know them lack good design, but that PCs as we know them have hardly any design to speak of. I’m not trying to be insulting. Use a Mac for a week, and we’ll talk again.” Check out their latest comic and blog post and you can see a good account of the computer enlightenment that takes place when you use a Mac. See I am not crazy.

Listen to today’s show here!
