Join me this week as I sit down with Marv Bee, the host of the IT Business Podcast, for an insightful conversation. We delve into the latest updates from Marv and discuss the exciting advancements in DIO Speakers, the go-to choice for seamless audio streaming. Marv shares his thoughts on Synology NAS devices and their role in revolutionizing data storage and backup. I ask the question, do we really need local storage in 2023? I also get a chance to pick Marv’s brain on my current UPS project and the challenges I’m facing. Finally, we tackle the often-overlooked topic of HDTV Antennas and share our experiences finding the perfect fit for our TV setups. Don’t miss this informative episode packed with tech tips and industry insights! Thanks for listening!
