Going For a Drive

My buddy Al just said a very funny thing about my computer. He said "you should turn it in to become a boat anchor." I've had my computer for a long time, and I was having trouble understanding why I'd want to use it as a boat anchor. Then he told me somethig really surprising. He said I shouldn't have to shovel coal into my compter any more. He said they make computers now that not only don't run on coal power, he said you don't even have to turn the crank to make them work. He said you just plug them into the socket on the wall and hit the start button and the screen comes on. He claims his computer even has a battery, and when that battery wears down, he does't throw it away, he leaves it connected to the wall outlet and it charges itself back up. Hard to believe. The rest of this podcast may be even harder to believe. Give a listen please.
