Mobile Devices
Lee: Have you noticed that technology sales people will only describe where a device or plan works well. Wouldn’t you love it if sales people said things like “this device really sucks at XYZ”? It would be much more helpful.
Bob: That’s why we’re here. This is an inverse sales pitch regarding mobile devices and plans. The key word of the column is “sucks”.

Tech Talk - Malware
Lee: Today’s topic is a fun one: Malware (aka, Viruses).
Bob: Many of you have had at least some experience with a virus – most of which were merely called to your attention as your anti-virus software caught it. However, some of you have suffered the ill effects of actual damage caused by the malware. How is it related to the lesser genomes of slugs, fleas and paramecium?
