Question
I wish we could just spell words out instead of creating acronyms for everything. I have been reading a lot of network/computer magazines since I am new to the field and it is very difficult when they have all these acronyms. Could you please add to your tech terms IDE, SCSI, ISCSI, POE, RAID. The list could probably be endless but these few would be appreciated. Thanks, I enjoy your show.
