What do you think about the show. Does it help you out on computer things or not.

I've never watched it. What is it about? Computers, I guess, but what about them?

I don't watch it much anymore, but I used to watch it all the time. I've learned a few things from it along the way, but not much recently. I also receive the show synopsis by email, so I don't have to watch the show to know what they talked about.

Like many shows, it's become alot more about entertainment than information. In the good old days, what it lacked in production values it gained in solid computer information.

I have mixed feelings about the show.

On the one hand, TSS holds a special place in my heart. About a year or so ago, they did an interview with the guy who runs WolfFM--my absolute favorite Internet radio station. I hadn't heard of WolfFM at the time, but tuned in after the interview. I love the station so much.

And, on occassion, I have picked up some good hardware tips.

On the other hand, maybe it's just me, but as I learn more about tech stuff, I find their information to be almost for the absolute beginner. Much of the content of the show is useless--to me.

Also, the hosts engage in a lot of pointless banter that seems to go on endlessly. They all think they're really funny, but their lame jokes get old very quickly.

I will say this, TSS is by far more superior than "Call For Help". Good gravy. I don't know who acquires any good info from that show.

The Screen Savers, Call for Help, All of the programs on that channel are good :o) Tech T.V. is a great source of information, computer help, and good ideas on what to get and what not to get when out shopping for a new toy . :o)
