YML Tonight: Storage Robots and the Perfect Keyboard

YML Tonight: Storage Robots and the Perfect Keyboard

by , 2:30 PM EDT, August 22nd, 2007

Your Mac Life (YML), with Shawn King, which airs every Wednesday night, will feature a chat with Geoff Barrall, CEO Data Robotics. They've developed a "Storage Robot" called "Drobo."

Mr. King also reports that YML has been in "keyboard hell" the past couple of weeks and said that Apple came out with their new keyboard just in time. Shawn and Lesa will have their first review of the new Apple "sliver of keys".

Lesa will have her iStockphoto.com Tip of the Week and Peter Cohen will have "The Big Story".

Your Mac Life tonight will also be giving away over US$200.00 worth of Apple stock. Listeners who tune in will learn how to win it.

YML is videocast each Wednesday night from 5:30 PM to 8:00 PM Pacific Time or from 8:30 PM to 11:00 PM Eastern Time. An audio only version only is also available.

Your Mac Life is also available as a podcast or for downloading individual shows on Audible. A year subscription is $19.95, $13.97 if you're a Gold or Platinum member of Audible. (I listen to a lot of audiobooks, so I have a Platinum subscription.)

The podcast that one can get through the iTunes Store is for streaming, only. Getting a shown just downloads an 8KB pointer file. That's fine for listening on your Mac, but useless for an iPod.
