Wow, Thats awsome! Video was really well done and extremely straight forward! And Tim’s making an appearance again. The AGP is just getting better all the time. And Tim has a mac?? I didn’t know that…:)
P.S..The “Aussie Geek Podcast” banner is starting to disappear.

Thanks for the comment dude, I’ve only just recently got a mac and I’m not looking back… (rhyming ftw)

Expect more of this stuff soon!

He does now the bastard went out and got one on Friday… I thought it was an awesome job as well. Nice one Tim. I have often been a bit wary of VM’s - mainly ignorance. But that video is a great guide and I reckon I’d have a crack at it.

I also want to know what is on the shirt…

I about 2 steps away from getting a 24″ iMac myself…

I just need to convince myself to spend about $2300…

Just do it Herne. Been chatting with Timmy over the weekend and he is like a little kid at Xmas talking about his new iMac. It’s very cool to chat with him while he is discovering all the fun of what makes a Mac awesome.

Ill be jumping on the Mac bandwagon by October, IF the new model Macbooks have been released! Can’t wait!!

@Dave Hahaha! I still enjoy my 30″ cinema display at work!

Quad G5 @ 2.5 Ghz with 6 GB RAM, baby!

Imagine the PC I could buy for $2300… But then I hafta deal with Vista crap.

Sounds like a nice setup at work Herne. You do video production or something?
Herne Jul 29th, 2008 at 2:16 am

@Blogslut Graphic Design, layout and typesetting…

@Dave my work setup has to be good for something! Why not make Mac Geeks drool?
