This week Noah and Steve dig into thoughts for light switches if you're starting from scratch. Do you work in a small closet that's been turned into an IT room? Noah gives you a recommendation for a small portable travel laptop stand. With under a year left to switch to Windows 11, there's a surprise at how many people have yet to upgrade. We talk about why that is.
