The Apple Daily Report is taking a different approach to serving the Mac community. Dennis talks about their very different ad model that delivers local Apple Specialist information rather than just the same old ads that you see (and sometimes overlook) elsewhere. Dennis brings a wealth of experience to the new site, and talks about the content, how the Apple universe has changed during his career (hint: Apple won), and offers an opportunity and a resource to Apple User Groups.
