On this week’s episode, Matt makes a Canadian joke, Wes gets lazy, and Norm admires strawberries.

    yeah i know exactly one person with a stock iphone and my point was more that “no itunes support” is hardly the point that will kill chromebooks as itunes is unbareable on non mac systems and non mac users are 90%+ of the users 🙂
    the lack of internal memory,  “browser only” nature of the os and price are points that most customers will care more about.

  2. So the ring finger on my left hand is a useless finger eh? I guess I’ll just go sell my guitar then.

  3. OEMs still put crapware on the PCs because the profit margins on PCs are still razor thin. As the price of the parts fall, the price of the PCs fall due to competition. HP and others on their high end machines (Envy, etc) I don’t believe put all that crapware on..

    Also I’m surprised you guys weren’t ripping apart the whole “$99” signature charge. It’s not that much different the the $99 Geek Squad charges (which seems unanimously hated). In some ways Geek Squad is better because they atleast burn you recovery discs. I’m not defending Geek Squad, trust me, but I’m just saying.

  4. How To get the link to the podcast:

    1) right click on page

    2) select “view page source” (chrome) other browsers have similar functions

    3) search for “data-mp3-url”

    4) data-mp3-url=”(podcast link will be here)”

    just in case some of you get here early 🙂

  5. Loved Matt and Wes on the podcast. Since the podcast is being recorded at Will’s house, is there any chance that we’d hear Gina on an upcoming podcast?

  6. Best Adam and Jamie
