Everybody’s talking about the destruction of consumer electronics and that’s bad, but basically everything in modern life has a computer in it. Hospitals, airports, transportation, shipping, medical devices, farm equipment, and point of sale terminals had a good run
“.. ‘many system vendors will go bankrupt or exit product lines due to a lack of memory. Mobile phone production will be reduced by 200-250 million units, and PC and TV production will be significantly reduced.’ Yikes.”

Happy Monday #Bluesky!
Looking for volunteer testers willing to give SkyDeck Live a good run and help me compile a list of:
- What's not working
- What's missing
- What's not working even though I said it was
- Bugs
Bugs will be squashed. All else will be saved for Version 2.
Thank-you,
