First up: Allison Sheridan, creator of the NosillaCast podcast is an engineer and a geek. She loves freeware, shareware, open source tools – anything she can throw on her Mac is fair game.

At Macstock 2015, Allison will be giving an in-depth demo of the awesome new application, Audio Hijack 3 from Rogue Amoeba.

Why do you use a Mac?

I started on a Mac in 1984 and never owned a PC until I built one for my son a few years back. I was forced to use a PC at work for about 5 years and I never got to the point where I could say I ever enjoyed any of my time with it.  Everything felt like a chore and just too darn hard.  Even though some people choose Windows, I can’t imagine choosing it myself.

What would you say to someone to convince them to come to Macstock?

If you’ve ever wanted to experience the Mac community you hear so much about, Macstock and the Midwest Mac BBQ will show you the essence of it.  It’s a community-built project to teach, to learn, and I’m betting to laugh together.

MyMac.com podcastThanks to Guy & Gaz for devoting more of their show to Macstock!

Because we haven’t talked about it enough, Gaz and Guy devote the entire second section of the show to the Macstock Conference and Expo which is taking place on June 20th in Woodstock, Illinois. This is followed by them also talking about the Midwest Mac BBQ taking place on the same day. They MUST be sick or something. Hang on a moment…they were!
