Macs, although we run Vista on our Mac Pro with Boot camp. I am expecting a Gateway One to come in the mail any day now, and I’m really excited about that. I built a Linux-based Media Center PC, and I also have a Linux PC that I use just to learn more about Linux.

My top five favorites right now are the iPhone, Amazon’s Kindle, Drobo, Eye-Fi, and Monster Power to Go.

Both. We have a Slingbox Pro and two Apple TVs.

CrunchGear.com, TechMeme.com, Lifehacker.com
How has tech affected your life?
Technology has changed my life entirely. We had a web development company before the dot com bubble burst. After that, we paid attention to what was happening in the world of tech, but nothing piqued our interest until podcasting came along. Podcasting changed my world, and it’s changed my possibilities. Not just mine, either. It opens up so many opportunities for anyone who wants to take advantage, and that’s what excites me.
