There are certain dead presidents that somehow keep up with the latest in computer technology. So whenever I have a techy question, instead of calling up IT, I just break out the Ouija board. As you may know, Apple just came out with its latest and it's put me in a bit of a quandary. I hate to reveal secrets, but here at the POD we rely on a vast army of microbes to help us keep churning out the 'dromes. Many of them use Windows, though, and I have no way of knowing how they would weather the change to the new OS. So I dimmed the lights, slid the puck over the zodiacy symbols and asked old number 16 just what to do.
