Episode #13, the episode that almost wasn't... Sorry about the late show release this week.

Starting on this weeks - late - episode of "The Mac Attack" I'm going to dive into the switcher stories that I have received and discuss some basic and advanced switcher tips, tricks, & hints.

Now you die-hard Mac users don't go anywhere, even if you have been using a Mac since 1984 there's a lot of information on this show you can use too.

Oops, I forgot to mention that the November issue of macCompanion is out. You can read the web based version now. The downloadable PDF version of the ezine will be out in a few days. I have a tech article and two book reviews in the November issue (more shameless self-promotion).

Next week I'll continue with the Switcher segments and discuss websites, Mac literature, applications, and more switcher tips, tricks, & hints.
