Tips and picks

Tip of the week: Back to school sale

Microsoft Store is hosting another back-to-school sale right now. Also, remember that

parents and students save up to 10 percent year-round on select products at Microsoft Store.

Also: I finished the Windows 10 Field Guide this past week. Download now to get the final major content update.

App pick of the week: Opera for Android

Opera for Android is now optimized for Chromebooks, pointing the way to other mobile browsers and apps being optimized for desktop platforms.

Enterprise pick of the week: SQL Server on Windows Containers is no more

SQL Server on Linux Containers: Yes. SQL Server on Windows Containers: No. This may seem counterintuitive, but it actually makes sense.

Enterprise pick No. 2 of the week: The 8th edition of Office 365 for IT Pros (with a discount for WW listeners)

The bible for M365/O365 for IT pros is now in its 8th edition. And the lead editor Tony Redmond has provided a handy-dandy discount code for listeners to get $10 off.

Beer pick of the week: Deschutes Fresh Squeezed

Codename for Cloud PC is Deschutes. Deschutes Brewing in Oregon makes some really great beers. Black Butte Porter is one of THE best out there. And Deschutes Fresh Squeezed is one of my favorite IPAs when on the west coast. Tastes like fresh squeezed OJ, with hops. 6.4%. soooo tasty.
