John Hodgman on the death of publishing and being a Mac trapped in a PC's body

I'm fully prepared to complete every sentence I utter about John Hodgman in the future with the qualifier "is a delight."

When we finally nailed him down for an interview on the Engadget Show last month, we asked him to meet us at the General Society for Mechanics and Tradesmen in midtown Manhattan.
