The first show deemed suitable for release. We chat about the Intel release of Mac OS X, possible implications of using a credit card in a coffee shop, and try to mate a Griffin Rocket FM with a Griffin Radio Shark to create perpetual motion.

Listen Now:

Bill Gates Keynote, recorded live in Las Vegas at Comdex Fall 1996. He made some mistakes, but looking back he got quite alot right. Join us for trip back in time to when processors were 200Mhz and Michael Jackson was on his World Tour.

Listen Now:

Its our second show. We chat about THE UK PSP release on September 1st. The Zotob Worm hits Windows 2000 with help from Microsoft. Mobs descend On a stadium in search of $50 Apple school notebooks sale. WIMAX starts trial testing in the Midlands with PIPEX. Time Computers go into receivership.

Listen Now:

The third show, and were sorry it took so long. Jim invites a guest over- Nigel Eastmond. We talk about the Ipod Nano, Karl has one, Jim wants one. Spanish Wifi and why you shouldn't upset farmers with goats and sheep. Internet Suicide via IM. In car USB and night vision. Nano stress testing, its like Captain Scarlett - Indestructable. The Motorola Apple phone, what went wrong? and lots more.

Listen Now:

The fourth show - eventually! We discuss the recent Apple product releases, report on some good customer service from Matias and ask the question: just what has Steve Jobs got against France?

Listen Now:

In our fifth show (after the Gods Of Audio decided to like us again) we talk about the possible repercussions of using a mobile phone (or a calculator) on an aircraft. We also take a look at some recent Apple news and rumors, and Jim gets excited by a new PC game - X3:Reunion.

Listen Now:

In our sixth show we discuss having a crash in a Merc, water heating via 802.11, Karl gets drafted by the Logitech Secret Service and Jim has a frankly rather disturbingly good experience in the UK Hull branch of PC World. Oh...and Borg sheep.

Listen Now:

Karl has some RedHat related ranting, Jim has some Microsoft SQL related ranting, then we get into our Delorian, dial December 1978, and floor that sucker to see what were the hot geek gifts in our formative years.

Listen Now:

CES! Apple Expo! 2 falls, no submissions! In our first show of 2006 we discuss the CES show, The Apple Expo and the new products released or previewed at them. Then we tear into Bill Gates' dress sense. Additionally, Jim's Dad now has a G4 Powerbook so we discuss the whys and wherefores of that purchase and ask the question: is Norton Internet Security more trouble than it's worth?

Listen Now:

>Steer sou' sou' east and dial up "Paint It Black" In our ninth show we discuss some of the pros and cons of the Apple 5th gen iPods and Jim does a mini review of the new iTrip (which you can't use in the UK). Someone has had far too much time on their hands, as they've stuck a Mac Mini in an old SE30 case. Will "Don't call me Wesley" Wheaton has a podcast and it's quite good...apparently. The Brits, not to be outdone by American cars with iPod docks, have fitted iPod charging units to the cabins on their new Type 45 Destroyers. Oh, and the RIAA know where you live.

Listen Now:

The sky is falling! In our tenth show (double digits baby! Yeah!) we discuss the first proper malware to hit Mac OS X. We also discuss the forthcoming v ideo iPod. And John C. Dvorak is...sing along now...a burk.

Listen Now:

It's rant time! In our eleventh show Jim has a bone to pick with the guys who operate the overhead information signs on motorways. Karl has a run in with a Dell server. We also whinge about how Apple has put sub-standard graphics into the new Intel Mini. And how Apple is perhaps a little slack with security updates. And how the Origami devices look like they're going to suck badly. In fact the only thing we don't rant about is John C. Dvorak - whom we don't mention at all.

Listen Now:

Boot Camp! In our twelth show we discuss Boot Camp and the new software from Parallels - two ways of achieving basically the same thing, ie running Windows on an Intel Macintosh. Then Karl discovers that Police Dogs are getting cyber on your ass.

Listen Now:

It's Blue Screened Again! In our thirteeth show Jim has a play with...oh hang on, it just blue screened again...Vista, and isn't impressed. In other news, Bill Gates goes to...it just blue screened again...Vietnam and is treated like a pop star, there was a wonderful hoax involving Air Force One and you can now get your child GPS tagged. And it just blue screened again. Quality.

Listen Now:

Max Headroom In our fourteenth show Jim chats about the Apple vs. Apple court case that sort of finished recently, speculates about the forthcoming iBook replacement, the MacBook, and reports that George Lucas has finally seen sense and is releasing the original Star Wars trilogy in un-altered form. Karl talks about wifi on the train, how the UK is screwing up Project 'Reverb', and has some new headphones that he's rather attached to.

Listen Now:

Tarnished Vistas In our fifteenth show Karl is hyper on coffee and Jim has had a little too much whisky, so a third person is drafted in to try to make some sense. Unfortunately it's Jim's wife Carol. Always a mistake. She gives her impressions of Vista (now that Jim has a stable version running) while Jim and Karl roam over the geek landscape, taking in some sights such as Starbuck's proposed music download service, the fact that we're only going to get one version of the PS3 here in Blighty, and Guess The DVD.

Listen Now:

Tell the crickets to shut up In our sixteenth show there's not a lot happening in the Mac world so Karl talks about the RIAA, BitTorrent and has a new toy to play with - a Slingbox. In amongst this Jim plays with some sound effects and we remember just how bad 'The Hulk' was.

Listen Now:

There might be bagpipes. Frankly it's been so long since we recorded this one that I can't actually remember what we talked about. Um.

Listen Now:

We're back and...well, we're back. We take a ramble around the tech world, catching up with what's been happening during our absence, as well as explaing why we've been absent. We go on the whole hard drive encryption adventure and talk about how Seagate is to launch hard drive encryption, but still working on Vista hibernation issues. Microsoft have their own software based solution (as do Apple). And we offer a good third party open source solution with the excellent Truecrypt.

Listen Now:

Zune: Who cares?. The Zune is unleashed on the world and...no-one seems to notice. Jim finds a good Apple tune-up util and has grief with IE7 on his PC. Karl has grief with Windows Genuine Advantage telling him he's a thief when, in fact, he's not, and has fun and games with anti-virus.

Listen Now:

Rumours, Statistics and numbers. MacWorld January 2007 is fast approaching and the rumour-mills are running at full speed. Jim takes a look at some of the more likely and outlandish rumours. Meanwhile Karl discovers that one school has removed 802.11 wireless as it might be harmful, the PS3 sells out (mainly due to Sony only releasing 10 units), and a pirate gets seven years for copying 'The Core'. Good grief.

Listen Now:

MacWorld Expo and CES Karl takes a look at CES and passes comment on LG Super Player, Sharp's 108 Inch LCD, Sony's Vaio UX and Microsoft's fashion sense in general. Jim, meanwhile, takes a look at Apple's MacWorld which was notable for not actually having any Macs in it. Instead they've announced some sort of phone thingy.
