PC Perspective Podcast

You will be pleased to learn that we did indeed get together on Wednesday night (at 10 Eastern) to podcast this week. Here is the edited version of that podcast recording session.  Within you find side-quests, insights, food, camera lens talk - and tech.  Lots of tech talk on such things like Microsoft making terrible decisions, bad security theater, and idle data.  Join us.
