Find and follow him on Twitter as @daveg65. You can also hear him share his knowledge on his podcast, In Touch With iOS. Kelly Guimont is 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.

Guy Serle, best known for being one of the co-hosts of the MyMac Podcast, sincerely apologizes for anything he has done or caused to have happened while in possession of dangerous podcasting equipment.

Mark was a proud investor in Microsoft from the mid-1990's selling in mid 2000, and hopes one day that MSFT will be again an attractive investment. You can contact Mark through Twitter on LinkedIn. Jeff Gamet is the author of Fresh Brewed Tales, a chronicle of Jeff's strange adventures at coffee shops. You can find his regular updates on Twitter.  By day, Marina Epelman is a professor of Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan.

Calendar and Reminders are built in to the Apple ecosystem, but are you getting as much out of them as you could? Scholle McFarland helps you do just that in the third edition of Take Control of Calendar and Reminders.

Our informal discussion with Jim Tierney of Digital Anarchy touched on a variety fo subjects that included what it takes to upgrade video plug-ins to support the M1 Macs and Metal, the performance they are seeing out of the upgrade, and  the issues of selling video plug-ins (or not) on the App Store. We also touch on the benefits and challenges of both editing and watching 8K video, and why upgrades present economic challenges for developers.   This edition of MacVoices is brought to you by the MacVoices Dispatch, our weekly newsletter that keeps you up-to-date on any and all MacVoices-related information.

During the 1990's, Jim worked for software companies like MetaTools, Atomic Power and Cycore. He helped create graphics products like Bryce, Evolution and Final Effects. After working on After Effects plugins for six years, Jim thought it was finally time to get out there and do some of his own. So he did, and Digital Anarchy was born in 2001.
