  • How Steve Jobs changed the face of retail with the Apple Store

    I took the day off from my job at CompUSA corporate HQ to go stand in line at the third Apple store to open, Apple Willow Bend in Plano, Texas. This store was designated as "R008" even though it was number 3 to open. I stood in line for about 3 hours. I wasn't buying a new Mac that day. Instead, I bought a really great USB scanner that I used until I got an Intel Mac 5 years later. The scanner driver wasn't compatible with Intel Macs. I started working at Apple Willow Bend in January 2003. I was later promoted to Mac Genius. I left in late 2007 to become an Apple consultant.

  • Why you want a macOS home server, and how to get one going

    Considering what Apple has been doing to its server product for the last six years, macOS Server is only good enough to be a home server. I take care of several Mac servers, and when they need to be replaced, I must sadly move them to another OS. In some cases, I can move the data to the cloud, but I won't be able to do that with all of them.
