Hi, this is Bill Sikkens, host of User
Friendly 2.0.

00:00:02,458 --> 00:00:05,750
Saturday's here on the answer
with this week's Tech Wednesday.
3
00:00:05,916 --> 00:00:08,916
This week on User Friendly
we're going to be talking about fakes
4
00:00:09,291 --> 00:00:13,375
and what I mean by that is hardware
software that you get the purports
5
00:00:13,375 --> 00:00:17,333
to be a brand says
very specifically that it is.
6
00:00:17,666 --> 00:00:21,208
But it turns out that it's something
completely different or worse, something
7
00:00:21,208 --> 00:00:23,250
that's actually dangerous to operate.
8
00:00:23,250 --> 00:00:25,500
I had this happen to me,
and I've been doing a little research
9
00:00:25,500 --> 00:00:27,416
on this and finding
that this is actually something
10
00:00:27,416 --> 00:00:31,458
that is a big concern
and growing among hardware manufacturers.
11
00:00:31,458 --> 00:00:35,000
Not only does it make the actual
manufacturers of good brands look bad,
12
00:00:35,333 --> 00:00:38,750
but it can create a situation
that you're simply not prepared for.
13
00:00:38,750 --> 00:00:42,625
And the whole idea of this
is to get you and your money apart.
14
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,541
So join us this Saturday
here on The Answer for User Friendly 2.0
15
00:00:46,541 --> 00:00:48,000
as we're going to dive in
16
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,000
to some of the different products
that you need to be on the lookout for,
17
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,000
and how to be able to tell a fake
from the real thing.
18
00:00:54,208 --> 00:00:56,833
So what happened to me
doesn't happen to you.
19
00:00:56,833 --> 00:00:59,833
That's the Saturday here
on User Friendly 2.0, here on the answer.
