Episode 36 of the MacRoundtable (Bag O’Meat Episode), was a lively discussion for a Thursday night, even with Don doing it at 1 in the morning from England. We talked about the Aiport Express now having support for 802.11n, how we use them and why you might (or might not) find it useful. We had real time updates during the show about whether or not the Airport Extreme firmware update 7.3.1 would actually allow you to backup using Time Machine to a USB-attached drive (it does!) and how people are getting along with Time Capsule.
One of the most interesting topics was whether we each though AppleCare was worth the money and even some tips on how to get it less expensively than just through Apple (hint: look for deals on Amazon). During that discussion Victor explained the kid glove treatment he got on his MacPro hardware problem. We also talked about where to find deals on Macs and whether refurbished Macs are a good way to go. Victor explains the important difference too between “refurbed” and “refreshed”. Allison went on a rant about how Apple pushed a “software update” on Windows, which was for Safari, which she DIDN’T even have installed! See the screenshot here. If you enjoy outtakes, you’ll learn all about “bag o’ meat night” too!

Topics we discuss in this episode:
Positive reactions to all the new features in AppleTV 2, Tim’s WordPress site got hacked and he described how he attacked the problem and advice for others – run those updates when they come out! We also pontificated on what it means that Apple has been shutting down their site every Tuesdsay since MacWorld to make new, but maybe not so amazing announcements. David gave us a good explanation of how Aperture 2 fits into his photo needs. Finally we talked about how Time Machine and SuperDuper! both have their place in a backup strategy. David closed it up with a plug for a contest on his show where he’s giving away Audio Engine AW1 wireless adapters.

Episode 25 of the Mac Roundtable
This is the very first episode in our new rotating host format. Adam drew the short straw so he is up first. Adam is joined by Ken Ray (Mac OS Ken and Technocracy Radio) and Veronica Belmont (c|net Buzz Out Loud, c|net TV). On this edition of the Roundtable we discuss the state of Mac User Groups, are they a dying entity in the Internet age or is there a new generation of Mac users missing out on a great resource? Would, should, could Apple do a subscription service for iTunes. If so, what would that look like? WWDC is right around the corner, but Leopard isn’t. What will Steve jobs use to wow us at his keynote? All this, plus our cool Mac stuff picks. All and all, besides a couple technical glitches, another fine episode of the Mac Roundtable.
