| 0:00.0 | MacPowers, episode 563, Mac OS Big Sur. |
| 0:05.0 | Hello everyone, this is David Sparks joined by my fellow co-host Mr Stephen |
| 0:17.2 | Hackett. Hi Stephen. Hey David how are you? I am excited we got a new |
| 0:21.1 | operating system for the Mac and we are going to talk about it today. |
| 0:26.2 | Yeah new and shiny. It is new and shiny, very shiny in places. Yeah we do this every year because Apple's on this cadence and just like |
| 0:36.6 | clockwork we have another version but as we get into it this is a this is a big |
| 0:42.0 | year for Max software right big service a there's no way around it it's a big deal and I think that it's |
| 0:49.1 | definitely going to go down as one of the biggest moves forward in Macawes that we've seen in quite a while. |

| 1:46.5 | And I think you're totally right. That story that was around, you know, two, three, four years ago about that, that, hey, the Mac feels |
| 1:56.9 | forgotten a little bit. I think that's squarely in the past, you know. But on the other side side Apple has opened a lot of new chapters this year |
| 2:06.0 | with the Mac they still have to deliver on Apple Silicon across the rest of the line |
| 2:11.2 | they still have to deliver and all these software changes. |
| 2:14.0 | And so they've put a lot more on the plate in some ways, but I, like we said last week, it's a good time |
