If you aren't familiar with Leo here is his bio.

Leo Laporte majored in Chinese history as an undergraduate at Yale University. Since then he has worked as an author, speaker, and broadcaster in New Haven, Monterey, San Jose, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, most recently focusing on technology coverage for radio and television.

Laporte has written software for CP/M, Macintosh, and PC compatible computers including the popular open source programs, QDial and MacArc for the Macintosh. From 1985 to 1988, he operated one of the first Macintosh-only computer bulletin board systems, MacQueue.

He was the co-author, with former ABC Technology Correspondent Gina Smith, of " 101 Computer Answers You Need to Know," a computer book for beginners published in 1995 by Ziff-Davis Press. He has written about computer hardware and software for Byte, MacUser, and InfoWorld magazines, and he has contributed chapters to "Dvorak's Guide to PC Telecommunications" and "Dvorak's Inside Track to the Mac," both published by Osborne/McGraw Hill. He has written four bestselling "Technology Almanacs." "Leo Laporte's 2003 Technology Almanac" was Pearson Publishing's Book of the Year.

In 2000-2001, Leo was a Contributing Editor at Access Magazine, a Sunday newspaper magazine supplement with an estimated readership of 13 million in 80 markets nationwide.

In January, 1991 he created and co-hosted Dvorak On Computers, the most listened to high tech talk radio show in the nation, syndicated on over 60 stations and around the world on the Armed Forces Radio Network. Laporte also hosted Laporte on Computers on KSFO and KGO Radio in San Francisco.

On television, Laporte was host of Internet! a weekly half-hour show airing on PBS in 215 cities nationwide. He reported on new media for Today's First Edition, on PBS, and did daily product reviews and demos on New Media News, broadcast nationally on Jones Computer Network and ME/U, and regionally on San Francisco's Bay TV.

He created and was a daily contributor to The Site, an hour-long technology newsmagazine that aired nightly on MSNBC, CNBC International, and NBC Superchannel in Europe and Asia. Laporte won an Emmy in 1997 for his work on The Site. He also hosted two shows on TechTV (formerly ZDTV), a 24-hour cable channel dedicated to computers and the Internet.

Dave,
Can you post the link if its available already ?

I thoroughly enjoyed watching Leo on 'The Screen Savers' before they parted ways. The show is just not the same without him (amongst others). I suppose the "Over 35 Demographic" was not needed either on camera or in the viewing audience... Sorry for that.

I am glad that Dave had the chance to chat with Leo. Unfortunately I missed the show but am eagerly awaiting the replay when it becomes available here or at Leoville.
It will be available for download in a couple days. I will post the link ;)
Oh no - I missed it....I'm sorry.
Wow this is great Dave! I cant wait to put a voice to the face! Counting down only minutes away!
