The Columnist Savant - Reflecting on John C. Dvorak’s Influence & Impact - Windows Weekly​

As the tech world catches its breath from AI whiplash and retro gaming returns to the PC, Microsoft quietly kills underused tools and tries to double down on what actually works.

This episode blends the excitement of tech and entertainment (like Xbox classics landing on Windows 11) with a poignant look back at the life and legacy of legendary columnist John C. Dvorak.

Wow, the original Pink Panthers are a long time ago now (late 1963)... great theme song, got one in the naughty-spy mood

Thanks Plas Johnson, rest well.
