MacVoices
The talk of the Apple community

<p><strong>Bob “Dr. Mac” LeVitus</strong> is back after too long an absence, and after being trapped at home during the recent severe winter weather in Texas. In the first part of our conversation, Bob tells us how he passed the time without tech, and provides some ideas on what you might do if and when it happens to you. (Part 1) </p>
