Speaker:

Hi, this is Bill Sikkens, host of User

Friendly 2.0.

2

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.
