   LOL @ ‘I’m a PC because I can’t afford a MAC.’

   You’re getting better and better with each episode john. You corespondents need to cheer up a bit because they’re looking like they haven’t slept or rehearsed their spots under your super enthusiastic spots.

   WTF was that Star Wars thing at the end for? Was that a hint to me or something?

   Anyway, I’m sure this will catch somebody’s eye in the Media world and spotlight you on TV some day soon. Maybe I should drop a hint to Leo LaPort and Amber Mac. They like promoting things like this.

   I have to say that this episode was the most informative for me because of the virus and worm info, and that video card. ~~~droool!

   Keep up the great work John and gang, Hop to chat with you again this week sometime.
   TTFN!

   @MacBros

   Thank you, MacBros. Yeah, I’m telling some news reporting advice to the tech correspondents. They are geeks and still working hard to be a good reporter. So pretty much I can’t force them beyond their current skill. At least, they have the confidence and passion to face the camera. ’

   The Star Wars trailer is for a friend who is doing a short film or sidestory of Star Wars. It could mean you as well.

   Thanks Mac, but I’m a PC. xD
