Some changes may have your needing to purchase the update instead of grabbing it off the Microsoft Website. Andy tells us of an Issue on his Windows 11 Pro build after needing to change out his motherboard. Shawn is wondering though since his Windows 10 machine came from a Windows 7 Update if he needed to update would he be unable to use a license. Slick comes up with a great solution! Justin tells us what type of deal you are getting from DirectDeals or StackSocial with Windows11. We also share info on the reported Amazon investment in AI with Anthropic and its Claude platform.

Looking for a better solution for Data Connectivity? Eric Flam of Solis talks with Andy about the Solis Wireless Hotspot. An Alternative means for that connectivity with benefits over a Smartphone Hotspot or one from your carrier. Solis offers this connectivity to not just one carrier but many others. Solis is offered in over 130 countries and with over 200 carriers. This can be a great benefit for those traveling, especially overseas. Redundancy is the key with the Solis Wireless hotspot making sure you can always have the connection. The security benefits are also there with the elimination of using a public Wi-Fi which could open the user to a man in the middle attack. Can more than one person connect to the Solis hotspot? Eric tells us about speeds, ease of use, Powering the device and availability of the Solis Hotspot optimized for connectivity.

There are so many streaming channels of content and more will be launched. How do these options get discovered? Andy tells us about usi9ng the Gatsby.TV app and realizing he was paying for a streaming service while having the programs he enjoyed watching on another paid service that he also subscribed to. Andy welcomes Gatsby Frimpong, Co-Founder CEO of Gatsby.TV to TechtalkRadio to share info on the creation and use of the App. Gatsby has worked in the industry with Stops at Cisco, Microsoft and Google. Gatsby tells us how algorithms may not always be the best way to find programs and how some of the algorithms can add you to the Echo Chamber and not see shows or content out of your regular zone. With the Social aspect of Gatsby.TV this can give you recommendations and allow you to share, almost bringing a watercooler type discussion on content all within the App. Available at https://gatsby.tv/
