Erik and Bob take your computer questions.  Windows 7 computers to give a full screen warning on most computers when support for security patches is scheduled to end on January 15, 2020.  Windows 7 PCs may become collateral damage in any conflict with Iran.  New plant based bacon and chicken alternatives are good enough fool any meat eater.  Some Android based phones for people with low incomes may have malware preinstalled.  Our first caller asks whether his Windows 7 computer will be unusable for the Internet after Microsoft stops issuing security patches for his five year old computers. A Windows 7 user asks if updates to Windows security patches will continue if Microsoft Office is installed.  And the Windows 10 upgrade questions continue as a caller asks for the best way to back up his computer before upgrading to Windows 10.  Also we tell you a way to purchase individual copies of Microsoft Office products without having to pay monthly or yearly rental subscription fees to Microsoft for the software.  A Windows 7 user who users his computer to buy airline tickets or purchase online wonders if he could use a Chromebook for these tasks.  We also discuss changing from an SBC Global e-mail address to a new e-mail address.  A listener with problems using his on-off switch on his computer wonders if his Lenovo computer is worth salvaging.  He also wants to transfer his programs to a new computer.
