Cover Mac Lexicon-1
Sharon Zardetto has updated Take Control: The Mac OS X Lexicon for the Leopard era, and joins us to talk about how the latest version of the Mac OS required some additions you would expect and others that might surprise you. Sharon discusses her favorite new Finder feature, Apple’s strange lack of naming conventions for OS components, the origin of various words and phrases in the tech arena, her background with Mac User Groups and why “iPod” just barely made the Lexicon.
