A MacFable & Hawaiian Music The newest MacHelp from Maui Podcast is now shipping. Get it here! (or point your pod sucker app at this URL) All about the difference between PCs and Macs and how they got that way plus a mild rant about the problems of putting Hawaiian music on a Podcast. After uploading this Podcast I realized that in the background you can hear banging and sawing from the carpenters who have been working on my house for - oh, some indefinate period of time. During the recording I didn't even notice the noise, I've gotten so used to something always banging somewhere. Sorry about that. Next time I'll at least introduce the guys.

"Linux Opinion: An Open Letter to a Digital World" "The Windows platform is not just insecure - it's patently, blatantly, and unashamedly insecure by design" Well hey! I've got a suggestion: GET A MAC! Why settle for Linux when you can have real UNIX, a beautiful interface and an elegant computer?
