Our holiday gift guide shows wrap up with a MacVoices Live that was part-holiday party and part-gift picks, with some off-the-track discussions and lots of laughs thrown in. Providing the holiday cheer were Paul Burry, Michael E. Cohen, David Ginsburg, Kelly Guimont, and host Chuck Joiner.

Guests:

Michael E. Cohen  has worked as a teacher, a programmer, a Web designer, a multimedia producer, and a certified usability analyst. He's the author or co-author of several books, including Take Control of Pages, and Take Control of PDFpen 10.

David Ginsburg is the President of the Suburban Chicago Apple Users Group, and is an IT professional supporting Mac, iOS and Windows users. Find and follow him on Twitter as @daveg65. You can also hear him share his knowledge on his podcast, In Touch With iOS and sharing a love of horse racing on Off The Charts. 

Kelly Guimont is a longtime Apple geek, sitting down (on a telephone book) in front of an Apple IIe in 1983. She can still hear the ticking of the ImageWriter. Thanks to the miracle of the adjustable leg desk, she no longer needs the phonebook. Kelly writes for The Mac Observer, is the host of the Daily Observations Podcast, is co-host of The Aftershow, makes regular appearances on the British Tech Network and yet still has more to say which she saves for Twitter and Micro.blog.
