WebTalkGuys Buzz

photo by Greg Gilbert/Seattle TimesThe Seattle Times profiled the WebTalkGuys in its June 15 issue.
"Couple uses radio to spread the Internet buzz":

Excerpt: "Now and then: Even though the extreme excitement surrounding all things Web has died, Greenlee says he likes these days better. "There's less hype and more substance. The topics we talk about today are probably more real today than they were when we started because there was a lot of speculation in the early days. I think we're more relevant to more people right now."  (photo by Greg Gilbert/Seattle Times)

"Macintosh vs. Personal Computer: The Naked Truth"
by Dana Greenlee

"The Naked Truth" about why Mac-users love their computer.

"Like the Betamax vs. VHS, Coke vs. Pepsi, Tonya "Kneecaps" Harding vs. Paula "The Nose" Jones, the Mac vs. PC debate has been raging for well over a decade. While the lines between the two operating systems are constantly narrowing, the polarization still comes down to a personality style, fueled by fierce loyalty on the Macintosh owner’s part and bewilderment and sometimes derision in the PC camp."
