Just what are the compelling new features, and what should you do before you install them? You'll also hear talk about Google's overwhelming dominance of the search engine market, and whether it's possible they will ever be overturned. What about the speculation about a 10th anniversary iPhone, dubbed iPhone 8 in the rumors, which may list for more than $1,000? Bob explains why he hasn't bought any new M...

During this segment, Gene and Adam will have an extensive discussion about Apple's forthcoming professional Macs, the iMac Pro and the new Mac Pro. Is the iMac Pro, which will start at $4,999 when it debuts in December, overpriced compared to the competition? Will a decked out version cost as much as a compact car? You'll be surprised at the response. There will also be a discussion about whether Macs are good for hosting web sites, and about cloud solutions for hosting. During this segment, Gene will talk about his...
2017-06-182h 39The Tech Night Owl LIVE — Tech Radio with a Pop Culture Twist!The Tech Night Owl LIVE Apr 22, 2017We feature prolific author Joe Kissell, who will discuss the third edition of "Take Control of Your Online Privacy." You'll hear hints and tips on ongoing threats, including the fallout from the decision by the U.S. Congress, signed by the President, to allow ISPs to sell your online history to third-party providers.

2017-04-232h 39Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs’ PodcastSmall Business Interview with Bob LeVitus – Managing Distractions and Being Disciplined for Success – Small Business Show episode 109We began episode 109 of the Small Business Show with a plan to chat with Bob LeVitus about his new book, Working Smarter for Mac Users. We talked about the book of course, but we also covered a treasure of information about being a “Solopreneuer” for 20+ years and how creating discipline techniques can be a path to success.
Bob considers himself to be “virtually unemployable” and perhaps that has opened the doors for him to become an author with over 80 books to his name, a regular contributor to the MacObserver and a tech columnist for the Houston Chronicle. We jump rig...

He'll discuss how he overcame his Adult ADD disorder to organize his time and become more productive as a freelance writer. He'll also explain how he began as a hunt and peck typist to become reasonably fast on the keyboard. Does he type as fast as Gene, and does it even matter? And does he intend to review the Late 2016 MacBook Pro or does he have other products to cover? You'll also hear from...
2017-02-262h 39The Tech Night Owl LIVE — Tech Radio with a Pop Culture Twist!The Tech Night Owl LIVE Jan 21, 2017We feature outspoken commentator and podcaster Kirk McElhearn, also known as Macworld's "iTunes Guy," After Gene discusses a curious virus-style documents he was receiving from his Brother laser printer — and his solution — Kirk explains why he is bullish on Apple, despite the problems he has with recent products. Kirk continues to complain about Apple's inability to ship products on time, using the MacBook Pro and the AirPods as recent examples.

He also mentions a few of his favorite gadgets for the holiday season. But perhaps the most interesting part of the discussion is when Gene and Bob speak of the time they almost met a member of the Beatles. There's also a short discussion about the reported resurgence of vinyl records, and Gene's curious problem with his AT&T wireless account, where voices on the other end of the connection sounded as if they had slowed down...

In pointed remarks, Kirk explains why he's not terribly impressed with Apple's explanation for ditching the headphone jack, nor, for that matter, with the iPhone 7, which he doesn't regard as a significant improvement over previous models. In response to Gene's remark about the headphone jack being a notorious source of unreliability, Kirk brings up problems with frayed Lightning cables. There's also a brief discussion about the failure of the paperless revolution. You'll also hear from prolific author and commentator Bob “Dr. Mac” LeVi...

Topics will include the rumors that Apple will ditch a proper headphone jack on the next iPhone. Is this true, or just another tall tale, and why would Apple make such a move. The discussion also includes Gene's troubling odyssey in updating his Logitech Harmony universal remote to recognize new devices, which came to a dead halt because of a conflict with OS X El Capitan.

He first complains about problems dealing with Microsoft's One Drive and why he kept getting strange system errors after trying to upload files to the cloud storage system. The discussion moves on to why Apple refused to post his new satiric song, "Why iTunes Must Die!" in iTunes. Bob and Gene talk about Apple dodging a bullet in its conflict with the FBI, and there's a segment about the "printer ink wars" and how to save a bundle on consumables. Bob will also explain how his...
2016-03-272h 39The Tech Night Owl LIVE — Tech Radio with a Pop Culture Twist!The Tech Night Owl LIVE Feb 13, 2016We present freelance writer and podcaster Peter Cohen. He covers the "Error 53" controversy, involving iPhone 6-family handsets that have had Touch ID sensors repaired or replaced by unauthorized service shops. When you try to update the smartphones, they stop working and display that obtuse error. Although Apple maintains the move was done for the customer's protection, it has already sparked threats of class-action lawsuits. Peter will also talk about the fourth-generation Apple TV and whether some might have expected too much from it. And what about Apple's so-far moribund attempts to start a TV subscription service? You'll also hear from...
