MacVoices #20173: Mike Potter Provides A Final Summary on the Upcoming Virtual Macstock
As we count down the last few days to this year’s Macstock, which will be a virtual event, organizer Mike Potter discusses the details of the presentations and live online sessions. From a list of presenters to the “Macstock Lounge” where attendees can mingle and converse in a unique way, Mike tells us what we need to know. If it isn’t on your calendar, it should be, and it isn’t too late! This edition of MacVoices is supported by Linode, high performance cloud hosting and virtual servers for everyone.

Show Notes: Guests: Michael Potter is the Executive Producer of For Mac Eyes Only, and the organizer of the annual Macstock Conference and Expo. Mike's love-affair for all things Apple began in his Junior High's Library playing Lemonade Stand on a pair of brand new Apple ][+ computers. His penchant for Apple gear continued to be nurtured by the public school system when, in High School, he was hired as a lab supervisor to help run the Apple ][e lab for his fellow students and their Print Shop needs. Then, further still, in college he often opted to help a friend with her Computer Graphics coursework instead of focusing on his own studies, but only because it helped get him closer to the Mac-lab.
