October 17th, 2007 - We're back with another episode of Tech Talk. For the first time, we have a guest on this show: Chris from Idaho. Pete and Chris served together in Uzbekistan and until about a year or so ago Chris lived in the Phoenix area. We discuss what's been going on with us since the last show. Pete and Kevin have been sinking much time with The Orange Box and Chris has been playing The Legend of Zelda: The Phantom Hourglass. Pete also has a rant about Java. Jeff is tempted to get The Orange Box and would definitely buy the PC version over the Xbox 360 version. Jeff speaks of his love for Puzzle Quest on Xbox Live Arcade. You can provide feedback to the show by calling 206-888-2728. - Show Notes - We tried a different format for the news stories this week and assuming we don't get any negative feedback we will continue in this format.
