The Home Server Show 72
Today’s episode wraps up the interviews that Jim, Chris, and Dave did at CES 2010. You will hear from Mark Pendergrast, Senior Product Manager at Microsoft for Windows Home Server, the Zune team from Microsoft, and from a handful of bloggers and podcasters we met up with at CES. You will also hear an interview with LaCie’s Mike Mihalik about the new server from LaCie. We were even recognized by a listener and managed to corner him for an Interview.
Special thanks goes out to all who participated in these interviews. Andrew Edney, Timothy Daleo, Terry Walsh, Jim Clark, Garry Whittaker, Ian Dixon, and Jose Ortiz as well as all the vendors we spoke with. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting you guys, some for the first time, and look forward to doing it again. We had a great time and it will certainly sound that way in some of the audio clips. I hope you enjoy all the hard work that went into this show by Dave, Jim, and Chris.
