MGG 302: Comparing Folders, RAM/SSD, Maintenance, and Notes!

John and Dave nearly break their record today and answer a ton of your questions in this fantastic episode of Mac Geek Gab. Starting with five (yes, five!) answers to comparing folders, your two favorite geeks then move on to answer a few iPhoto questions, discuss syncing Notes between your Mac and iDevice, running system maintenance scripts, and wireless network range. Additionally, a segment on comparing the benefits of RAM vs. SSD got very interesting, with a great listener comment thrown in, as well. Download today, folks — you don’t want to miss this one!
