This week: we break down all that we know and still don’t about the Apple Watch, and Leander says why the $10,000 gold editions are totally opposite Steve Jobs’ vision for the company he co-founded.  Plus: Apple quietly kills their iconic glowing logo; what we love and don’t about the new Macbook, and why some are not thrilled with its new “butterfly” keyboard; and with HBO Now coming exclusively to Apple… could big AppleTV changes be on the horizon?   Our thanks for Freshbooks for supporting this episode.  FreshBooks is the easy-to-use invoicing software designed to help small business owners get organized, save time invoicing and get paid faster.  And I can vouch for this from experience, it also makes tax time a cinch.  Get started with a free trial at Freshbooks.com/cultcast, and please enter “CultCast” in the “How did you hear about us?” section!   And Squarespace!  Squarespace Seven doesn’t just have a redesigned interface, integrations with Getty Images and Google Apps, and new templates, they give you a bunch of tools to update your website on the go and view your metrics right on your iPhone.
