Episode 17

This week on Cyberwalker Radio: Windows on a Mac, Windows Vista, computer security, and more!

Every Tuesday I appear on AM 640 Toronto (640 AM) on The Stafford Show. Mike Stafford is a good friend and long time host on the station and I started doing 30 minute live tech help calls (no prep, seat of the pants) with him in early 2005, then I was forced to take a break because of my schedule, but now I am back.

If you listen live on the Internet, the show airs Tuesdays at 6:30 PM Eastern Time.

Andy, Mike and callers cover:

• Apple's 30th anniverssary, it's success, and the ability to run Windows and OS X on a Mac..
• Windows Vista - expect it to be a "wonder for gamers," but it will require a lot of system resouces to get it running.
• Andy and Mike have an ATI Radeon All-In-Wonder video card to gvive away - who'll win it?
• Mike forgot the password on his wireless network. Andy explains how to reset the router.
• Want to download TV shows from iTunes Canada? Who will decide when this happens? CRTC, of course.
• A caller has a computer that constantly reboots. How can you repair it?
• A security suite has ruined Travis' multiplayer gaming experience. How can you disable it's functions?
• Laptop causes a home wired network to crash. Maybe it's time to update the firmware.
• John forgot the password to his apartment building's WiFi connection - or did he?
• Rick has a laptop from the U.S. with a faulty AC Adapter. Will a trip to College and Spadina Streets help?
• Serge just upgraded to Media Player 10 and videos play choppy.
• Travis wins the prize pack that includes an ATI Radeon All-In-Wonder video card.
