I LOVE THIS PLACE!

Game Area
|
All That Software!
|
Look! It's QuicKeys!
|
|
This area is for games. Designed for smaller people, but big people like games too.
|
I've never seen that much Mac software in one place.
|
A very well stocked selection, including QuicKeys X from CE Software. (I wrote the original version of QuicKeys.)
|
Look! It's Calendar Maker
|
Bob Brown, Super Genius
|
And Spymac was there
|
|
That's Prairie Group's Calendar Maker, which I did the original version and the latest update.
|
The guy in the background is an old friend of mine, who is one of the store's Mac Geniuses. What a job!
|
There I was, with my Spymac shirt and utility belt. What a day!
