September 11, 2004
Dr. Dave marks the third anniversary of the September 11 attacks, remembers IBM System 360 leader Bob Evans and discusses how online writers challenged a major network news report. He and Evil Steve trace the shrinking role of standalone PDAs, imagine phones working with cars and portable computers, and look back at the 1983 Gavilan laptop. Callers ask about software utilities, a slow Windows startup and other problems, while one listener returns to say Dr. Dave’s troubleshooting had solved an issue that had frustrated him for two days.
