Tim has a hard time on the show this week saying "Version" for no apparent reason. Lee Givens, Guy Serle, and Tim then look at the new Apple products released this week, including MacBook, MacBook Pro, and the new Apple display. Finally, Tim, Guy, and Lee go ten rounds on a possible future product! Email us or leave a message at 801-938-5559

Sam Levin helps us kick off the show with a Cool Mac Picks, then Tim, David, and Guy talk about Spore, Adobe CS4, eBay, uBid, AOL, and much more. Plus a hearty congratulations go out to David at the end of the show.

With all the controversy surrounding Apple rejecting the Podcaster App from iTunes, we thought it would be a perfect time to have a chat with the App developer, Alex Sokirynsky. Featured roundtable participants include returning hosts Tim Robertson and David Cohen, plus Owen Rubin and Neale Monks. Later in the show, Sam Levin joins in with a Cool Mac Picks, and the roundtable looks back on the weekly happenings in the Mac world, SCSI, and more.

MyMac celebrates our 200th weekly podcast episode this week with a super-sized episode. We kick off the show with this weeks Apple event news, including the new iPod Nano and iTunes 8. Then our focus shifts to the question: what three applications would you want on your Mac on a deserted island? Participating is Tim Robertson, David Cohen, Guy Serle, Sam Levin, Lee Givens, John Nemo, Rich Lefko, and Neale Monks.

This week, a television crew from the CBS affiliate WWMT came out and filmed Tim and Chad for a story on Podcasting. Check out WWMT here, and once the newscast is on the air, we will be sure to link to the segment about the MyMac Podcast. Come back later tonight for that link.

This week, while Chad is on holiday camping out in the great wilderness and working on a top-secret Apple project (see Chris Seibold’s Not Mac News in the show for more details) Tim heads to Kalamazoo to record the show with regular guest Tad Scheeler as co-host.

This week, we talk about why we are three days late recording the Podcast. It is all good, Tim just had an important job to finish before he could make the long trek to the recording studio to meet up with Chad and record this week. But next week, look for the Podcast to be early.

We start off a little different this week. How? You have to listen to the show to hear how. The MyMac.com Podcast Contest is back! This week, find out how to win an iGuy from Speck Products! This is a very cool iPod case (kinda) and we are giving away not one, but TWO of them. We do a phone prank, albeit a lame one. And a call-in as well!
