MacPowell users episode 300, the tables have turned. Hello and I am

I am joined this week by my pal Stephen Hackett.

Hey Stephen. Hey Stephen. Hey Mike, it's good to be here. We have two very special guests on the show today.

For 300 episodes over seven years, they've been podcasting about hardware and software and
