Guests:

Kelly Guimont\xa0is a longtime Apple geek, sitting down (on a telephone book) in front of an Apple IIe in 1983. She can still hear the ticking of the ImageWriter. Thanks to the miracle of the adjustable leg desk, she no longer needs the phonebook. Kelly writes for\xa0The Mac Observer, is the host of the\xa0Daily Observations Podcast, is co-host of\xa0The Aftershow,\xa0and yet still has more to say which she saves for\xa0Twitter\xa0and\xa0Micro.blog.

David Ginsburg\xa0is the President of the\xa0Suburban Chicago Apple Users Group, and is an IT professional supporting Mac, iOS and Windows users. Find and follow him on Twitter as\xa0@daveg65. You can also hear him share his knowledge on his podcast, In Touch With iOS.

Jim Rea is the brains behind ProVue, the developers of the Panorama X database. Follow him on Twitter as @provuejim.

Guy Serle,\xa0best known for being one of the co-hosts of the\xa0MyMac Podcast, sincerely apologizes for anything he has done or caused to have happened while in possession of dangerous podcasting equipment. He should know better but being a blonde from Florida means he's probably incapable of understanding the damage he has wrought. Guy is also the author of the novel,\xa0The Maltese Cube. You can follow his exploits on\xa0Twitter, catch him on\xa0Mac to the Future\xa0on Facebook, and find everything at\xa0VertShark.com.

Andrew Orr\xa0is a freelance writer and amateur photographer. He loves Apple products and enjoys writing and sharing all things tech. When he's not writing about Apple, you can often find him snapping photos with his iPhone. Read what he writes at\xa0The Mac Observer, and follow him\xa0on Twitter.
