MacVoices #21016: MacVoices Live! - CES Wrap-Up and Mac Redesigns (1)

In the first part of this MacVoices Live! conversation, the panel of David Ginsburg, Jim Rea, Jeff Gamet, Kelly Guimont, Brittany Smith and Mark Fuccio wrap up CES 2021 with a discussion of what worked and what didn't for the first virtual version of the big event. Organizers, exhibitors, buyers, distributers, press, and all the other categories of attendees were trying to figure it out. Lessons learned, improvements needed, and whether we prefer the in-person or virtual versions are all included. (Part 1 of 2)

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. Kelly writes for The Mac Observer, is the host of the Daily Observations Podcast, is co-host of The Aftershow, and yet still has more to say which she saves for Twitter and Micro.blog.

Check out her latest project, a YouTube channel of tech tips.

Mark Fuccio is actively involved in high tech startup companies, both as a principle at piqsure.com, or as a marketing advisor through his consulting practice Tactics Sells High Tech, Inc. 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.
