TechByter Worldwide 2015.04.05: Microsoft Surface 3 Will Soon Be in Stores, Adobe's Creative Cloud Continues to Grow, Data's Value Exceeds Hardware's Value, Short Circuits, and Spare Parts.

A smaller version of Microsoft's Surface Pro 3 will soon be available and at a lower price, Adobe continues to release mobile applications that allow designers to stop using scratch pads when they're away from the computer, and most people now agree that data on a computer is more valuable than the computer. In Short Circuits: I have a quick update on Windows 10, which now works on the notebook computer I tried to install it on a couple of weeks ago and if you want a perpetual license for Lightroom 5 but haven't been able to figure out how to get it, I'll show you the way. In Spare Parts, only on the website: TrueCrypt, rumored to be insecure, proves to be safe; an executive order from President Obama to fight foreign cyber-crooks, Yahoo and Microsoft extend negotiations on their future, and looking at activity by high-tech CEOs in battling a law in Indiana.
