Summary

John and Dave kick off this week with two topics no Mac user ever expects to talk about: viruses and defragmentation.

Once done there it’s time to dive into the mailbag and answer listener’s questions on the air! Don’t get caught, folks, just listen to your two favorite geeks. It’s all part of your balanced (tech) diet.
