[mac4theblind] Re: Lion has been released

Hi John,

Let me add my words of appreciation too! As a newcomer to the list I am most
impressed with the wealth of information. As examples your material on Lion,
plus that of Sara's on Lion, have been helpful. At a time when I am
preparing to move to Mac I feel fortunate to have connected with your list.

Indeed, others are also doing fine work--example David Woodbridge, and
having pioneers provide help will give us options.

So, to you--and others--keep up the important work.

Sincerely,

Leo

      Thanks for the kind words.  As I said, demonstrations are 
 not my strong point.  I try to keep them very brief and to the 
 point without a lot of extra chatter that takes away from the 
 subject I am demonstrating.  I was told by a few veteran 
 podcasters that the content is the thing you have to focus on 
 and keep it so folks listening get something out of it without 
 having to fast forward through any part of the recording.  
 
 Take Care
