Hey welcome back!
Brilliant to see MacBites download into iTunes again. I’ve missed you.
I especially liked the piece about software prices. I agree with Elaine the licensing terms are important to me too. I had a hard drive crash and even though I had backups of data contacting companies regarding activated software was a nightmare. It took much longer to get back to a working machine than it should have done.
Would love to hear more about that software that lets you install on more than one Mac. What was it? Do I need it? Where can I buy it? LOL
Here’s to the next episode – you did say next week didn’t you?
Hey!! Great to have you guys back! Loved the Big Ben discussion. Theres a Big Ben app too – I found it on macupdate. Not tried it though. Maybe Mike could try it and tell us if it bongs on the hour LOL
Hi
It’s nice to be back
I’ve remembered which application had the sensible license options and we’ll be taking a look at it on the next episode … the next episode which is being prepared right now, so should be out by erm … Christmas? *ducks*
Only joking should be with you by Monday *that’s this coming Monday*.
Yes, another MacBites Monday … is the world ready? LOL
Hi MacBites crew, I just finished listening to ep 17. It was my first listen and I loved it.
I know Elaine really knows her stuff with Creative Suite and enjoy the NWAG meetings she runs but as a Mac user I didn’t know I’d been missing out on a fantastic podcast with her too. My newly minted subscription to MacBites has rectified that glaring omision LOL
Loved the comment from Elaine about wanting more of her “and who wouldn’t?” nearly fell off my chair laughing. More, more I want more!!
Great Dreamweaver CSS demo on Thursday too BTW and now I’ve got the software (stroking the Creative Suite package I won at the user group last week here) I’ll be able to have a play with the very latest version myself.
Here’s looking forward to next time guys.
