The new MacFixIt. The people at CNET overhauled the MacFixIt site back in September. Among the good news, the entire site is now free. There is no longer any MacFixIt Pro. The site is now integrated into the main CNET site structure. In comments, readers offer their opinions about the new format.

My final mac.column.ted column (with reader comments!). A problem emerged with the redesign of MacFixIt: reader comments from prior articles, including all of my columns, were stripped out. Comments were supposed to be restored within a couple of weeks; but it hasn't happened yet. I was especially disappointed that comments were MIA from my final column, as it contained numerous reader "thank you" replies regarding my departure from MacFixIt.

If you're interested in what people had to say, I've reposted the column here, including all the comments.

Latest Macworld article. Check out my latest online-only article for Macworld.com: iPhone Under the Hood: Carrier settings and configuration profiles.

User Group Talks. I had a great time giving a talk at the Silicon Valley User Group on September 21.

Previously this year, I spoke at the Diablo Valley Macintosh Users Group meeting (April 21) and via video chat at Austin's Capital Macintosh Users Group (May 21).

In general...
