MacVoices #23029: MacVoices Live! M2 Macs and Software Subscription Tips & PSAs

<p>The MacVoices Live! panel of <strong>Chuck Joiner</strong>, <strong>David Ginsburg</strong>, <strong>Jeff Gamet, Eric Bolden, Jim Rea, Web Bixby, Mark Fuccio, Guy Serle</strong> and special guest <strong>Brad Meyer</strong> take an extended look at Apple’s announcements of new M2-based MacBook Pros and macMinis. Price, power, availability, and the unusual way the announcements were communicated all get reviewed. Find out why some of the crew have already ordered, why some are passing, and some are on the fence. Then, the question of notification of software subscription renewals and pricing is examined in a public service announcement type of discussion that includes some tips for making sure you do or don’t get renewed without your consent. </p> <p><a href="http://patreon.com/macvoices"><img height="152" alt="MacVoices Slack" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12150" src="http://www.macvoices.com/wp-content/uploads/MacVoices-Slack-graphic-250-x-500-300x152.png" width="300" /></a></p> <p>This edition of MacVoices is supported by The MacVoices Slack.
