Need to Know podcast–Episode 86

I’m joined by Jeff Alexander from Microsoft to talk Windows 10. As excitement builds ahead of the July 29 release we cover off things such as what the upgrade entails, what are the benefits of Windows 10 and why most people should consider an upgrade as soon as they can. There was just so much to talk about that we agreed to do a follow up session in the near future. So download, tune in and begin your upgrade to Windows 10 today!
