The MacVoices Live! panel of Chuck Joiner, Jeff Butts, David Ginsburg, Warren Sklar, Jeff Gamet, Jim Rea, and Andrew Orr start off with a report on Macstock Conference & Expo by those who were able to attend, and covered how, even if you weren’t there, you will be able to benefit from the presentations. The group’s attention turned to the surprising amount of revenue Apple generates from games, even though it doesn’t seem to be among the company’s top priorities. (Part 1)
