Joining Bart this month are Gazmaz from the My Mac Podcast, Nick Riley and Scott Willsey of the Pocket Sized Podcast. The show starts with a quick rundown of some interesting numbers released in February, followed by a quick rundown of the month’s developments in some of the many court cases Apple are involved in. The main stories the show focuses on are the ‘goto fail’ bug, Microsoft’s new CEO, Samsung’s new product releases, an interesting bunch of hires by Apple, and some interesting politics/civics moves by Apple, including pressuring the Arizona governor to veto a bill legalising discrimination, and Tim Cook shooting down a right-wing climate-change-denying think-tank at the share holders meeting. The show finishes with a few quick stories including the pre-launch of CarPlay, Sony getting out of the PC business, and a handful of small bad-news stories for Microsoft.
