Welcome to Mac Power Users. I'm David Sparks and joined by my pal, Stephen Hackett. How are you doing, Stephen?

Oh, good, David. How are you?

Excellent. Excellent. Looking forward to today's show as we continue the state of the platforms.

We've got some oddballs in this one, but we've also got the Mac.

So we're going to cover them all.

This is part two of the two-part series state of the various Apple platforms.

Last week we did the iPhone, iPad, basically the mobile platforms.

This week we're picking up everything else, and I'm looking forward to getting started on this one.

Before we do get started, however, you can gift a relay membership right now at a very good price.

Yeah, absolutely. We are running a sale on all annual plans, so you can get a gift for somebody else, buy a gift for yourself, add a show to your existing plan.

And you want to go to giverelay.com.

The link is in the show notes.

You get 20% off any annual plan.

And it's a good reminder that we do more power users.

That's a longer ad-free version of the show that you and I do each and every single week.

And this week we are going to be talking about HomeKit.

HomeKit's kind of those weird things.

It's a platform, but it's also a software feature, kind of hard.

So anyways, we put that for our members.

So go check that out.

Give Relay.com.

The sale runs through December 18th.
