0:07.0	Hello everyone, this is David Sparks joined by my pal Katie Floyd how are you today
0:16.8	Katie I'm well David how are you good we've got to the end of another month
0:21.9	and we've got a whole bunch of feedback and other stuff on our mind so it's time for another MPU plus you ready? I'm very ready. I always look forward to these shows, but I want to get an update before we dig in and talk about what's on our mind and this is probably on your mind.
0:35.8	You just got back from Max Stock so I want to hear about that and hear how things went.
0:41.6	Max Stock was great, Katie.
0:43.2	You know, I hadn't gone, and I'd been hearing about it for years.

1:30.2	I don't think it was that big but it was it was several thousand no no it was like up in that neighborhood when you added you know you know think that back to the heyday with those big exposition halls and all the people going through there. It was massive.
1:42.7	But anyway, Max Talk is more intimate,
1:46.6	which is nice because everybody gets to know each other.
1:49.8	One of the things I noticed when I first walked in the door was there were a bunch of people there that I have not seen since the last Macworld.
1:58.0	You know, I was thinking about Wally and Wendy Cherwinsky and some of the other folks kind of in the old Mac World gang, they were all there and that
