John Hodgman explains it all for you Speaking of John Hodgman, the PC from the “Get a Mac” campaign gets another boost with his appearance as the poster child—I mean, cover subject—of the February issue of Wired. Hodgman, author of The Areas of My Expertise, among his other things, has written a story with the mind-bending topic of “What We Don’t Know.” He explains in the piece that “while I am not actually a human supercomputer/mentat, I do play one on television, and I understand the temptation to believe that you have all the answers.” —Posted by Catharine P.
