<p> I ask myself why I have become a premium member. I ask myself why I enjoy listening to Brad and Paul.</p><p>I am a hobbyist, who has worked with computers since the Apple II. I enjoy hearing and thinking about where Microsoft is going. Also, Apple. I have gotten more interested in Microsoft because Apple has been hijacked by the iPhone, and I have become less interested in small screens and apps. I am into productivity (both business and "creativity"-like how Apple pushed with MacBook computers).</p><p>Microsoft has opportunity to take over for Apple in non-phone screens. When you talk about this I get interested. Not so interested in discussions in detail of "stuff", but don't mind it in context of the big picture. Maybe it is just me, but I thought I would post this.</p>
