Customer Reviews
A Great Podcast
An invaluable podcast for switchers and veterans alike. Provides great tips and advice on all things mac and has a real community feel. Michael Potter is a pleasure to listen to!
Im a switcher
I found this podcast really useful especially switching over from "the dark side". I find the tip sheets useful too. I would recommend this for other switchers from the W word and others who like Mac gossip! Kieren, Berkshire, England
Top Podcast
A real pleasure to listen to - a very melow voice without the usual American twang. Nice to have the input from this side of the pond as well with contributions from Gazmaz. Responds to listeners queries in a timely fashion. Recommended to switchers as well as long time Mac users.
