This weeks "The Mac Attack" is a smorgasbord, a little bit of everything. Covered this week - Apple's support articles, Intel-based Mac tech notes, digging deep in to Activity Monitor, listener emails and more.

I was invited to take part in a new podcast. The tentative, working title is "Mac Roundtable". The show is hosted by Joseph Nilo, from the Mac Pro Podcast, Tim Verporten from Mac ReviewCast and me. So you can hear my big mouth not only on one, but two podcasts this week. Click here to take a listen. Let me know what you think.

Leo Laporte joins me this week as a special guest on "The Mac Attack". On this first episode of 2006 Leo and I discuss Apple and their switch to intel, "must have" Mac applications, podcasting and where it's going, Leo's current and future projects and more.

(Show Note: There's a little bit of audio distortion when Leo first joins me on the show but it clears up quickly, so hang in there folks. Thanks and enjoy.)
