As much as I learned from talking to people at the parties at Macstock Expo, there was also a conference during the day. The schedule was interesting.

Remember last week when I told the story of how I wanted to run Mojave in a virtual machine and I did everything I could to ignore Steven Goetz’s advice that I needed to turn the installer into an ISO? And then I had to begrudgingly admit that he was right? Well guess what? You […]
