In the “Plugs” edition of MacNotables, the panel of Adam Engst, Tonya Engst, Andy Ihnatko and Chuck Joiner do a little listener troubleshooting, discussing things that can help when a good Keychain goes bad, then turn their attention to .Mac. The members speculate on the existence of a .Mac champion and provide their opinions on both the the value of the service and what they would like to see added in the future.
Thinking of installing the latest upgrade to Mac OS X 10.4.9? You might want to listen to the team discuss why waiting for Leopard may be a good idea instead, and the fact that all software has bugs and probably always will.
Andy has been playing with three different hardware solutions that let you use your iPod as a recorder and provides a first look at the results, with Chuck weighing in with his own field use results from Macworld Expo.
