On one of those sunny and cold winder days here in Pittsburgh Erik and I were back on the air! If you want to hear us pontificate more about the weather, you should listen to the beginning of the show. If you want to hear me blow through Quantum Physics in 90 seconds, listen to the end of our show. Other than that, we really enjoyed the stores that we talked about, and I hope you do too. A fair amount of Apple and the future of computing. Or at least what Microsoft and Apple want the future to be.
