0:05.5

Hello everyone, this is David Sparks. I am joined by Mr. Steven Hackett. How are you today, Steven?

0:18.0

I'm good, David. How are you?

0:20.0

I'm excellent. And we are the Mac Power users, where we help you get better at using your Apple technology.

0:26.5

And we have something kind of fun planned for today.

0:29.5

Yeah, yeah, we do. So this is going to be the first meeting of the software club, which is an idea that we lifted from the forums.

0:41.5

Our idea here is every once in a while is to talk about an application that we're using.

So this is there's a link in the show notes and a link on the sidebar over at 512.

2:08.5
