Mac Geek Gab — Apple Tips, Tricks, and Troubleshooting

MGG 306: Mac Mini Migration, Drobo FS, Macworld Contest, and Paul Kent!

Listen Later

An unscheduled — and unscripted — show today for all of you before your two favorite geeks take their holiday break. John got his new Mac Mini and tells the tale of his migration to it from his G5, lots of tips there. Dave has been working with the Drobo FS, so he’s got some things to say about that. There is a contest for Macworld Expo passes for which you can submit a haiku to win, and finally Dave spent some time interviewing Paul Kent of Macworld Expo, and that interview is here in its entirety. Don’t miss it folks… and don’t get caught!
