Cranky Geeks Episode #232
16:15 I’m John C Dvorak and I want to tell you about Carbonite Which is a product I use to do online backup. I finally given up on buying those little disk drives. And then I noticed my wife lost a hard disk recently and she refuses to backup. So I got her an account and now I don’t have to worry so much.
Then, 4 minutes later
20:50 Question: How many people still don’t backup to the cloud?
John C Dvorak’s answer: I don’t. I have, like, so many hard disks laying around. I keep one in my car. Everything I’ve got backed up is in the trunk. Hope I don’t get rear-ended.
SNORT!
It is funny that John always talks shit about the cloud and then every advertisement on the show is cloud based.
This one is really good or eh!!
Well, at least they got rid of the skipping sound track problem.
