    Your tutorials are awesome! Don’t stop publish them, I just found them today and it really helped me out getting started!

    I managed to write a coin flipping application myself using your guide as a reference, with NSSlider for input and NSProgressIndicator to show the coin flipping progress! Your guide showed me how to talk to the UI elements

    And this one with Core Data – This is what I want to learn! Thank you so much for this! You are helping out much more than you think! Thank you!

    More cool stuff. Enjoying the show. Another question/tip for you here. New to Mac and am also learning the interface. Started up spaces and set Interface Builder to open up in the second space. This keeps it separate from the xcode to eliminate clutter. Would there be any drawbacks to doing it this way? When I hit the Hide Others it hides your Podcast also and I have to bring it back up. This lets me have you on my laptop screen and two pages on my external monitor with easy switching between interfaces as needed. Just wondering if there would be a reason to have xcode and Interface builder on the same screen?

    @Jeff: As far as I know it should be fine to run them on separate screens, I don’t use spaces myself, but I can’t think of any reason that wouldn’t work. :)
