The GMen start out with some listener feedback from Australia. Gaz has ANOTHER problem with some of his Apple gear. THIS time it's his Mac Mini. We go into a little detail about ProSoft Engineering's Data Rescue and Drive Genius and JoeSoft's Hear gets a mention. Guy fixes his Tae Kwon Do instructor's Mac and doesn't get a roundhouse kick to the face.
Rick Lefko joins the weekly podcast to chat with Tim and Guy to discuss the current state of the Macintosh, the Zune subscription model, Guy's broken iMac, the Apple Store, Sony closing stores, Keynote, and Drive Genius 2.
