Inside CNET Labs 25: Of NAS and mapped networks
Even though we don't actually talk about Nas, Dong does get all Illmatic as always.
Another short, but incredibly worldchangingly (look it up people) awesome episode in the can. First off, we have a very strange deja vu-ish intro that, if you've been listening closely to previous episodes, will sound strange and deja vu-ish to you as well.
After that, we briefly touch on the pseudo-fakery that is Bike Hero and Dong gets illmatic with NAS. LOL, not that Nas all you hip hop fans out there. No, I mean networked attached storage. I can understand why you'd get the two confused--what with the picture used for this episode and all--but seriously, try to pay attention.
It's straight downhill from there into audio debauchery as the we discuss incredibly interesting topics like our personal computer problems, haunted hard drives and the EMF.
Things take a weird turn toward the end as Dong discusses his many World of Warcraft boyfriends. No seriously. If you haven't noticed already...yeah Dong is insane and this story is just further proof of his insanity and why he must be stopped.

Eric Franklin refused to write a bio, saying, "Why are you bothering me about this bio business again? If I wanted people to know more about me, I'd send them to the Inside CNET Labs Podcast" (shameless plug). E-mail Eric.

Eric Franklin's colleagues once had the following to say to him: "Eric, you've been doing this performance testing thing for over 10 years now. How about you try something different?" To which Eric responded, "How about you shut the #%$@! up?" This candid attitude
allows him to go toe-to-toe with the most extreme of personalities, including that of Dong Ngo. This bio was written by Eric Franklin.
Dong Ngo is a knowledgeable, opinionated individual who wants to convince the world that he's just a normal person; but he hasn't had much success. According to him, this is because the world itself is abnormal. Dong loves traveling and is well-versed in several languages. He, unfortunately, is not so well-versed in English. Still, it's best to ask him questions. From networking and how to optimize your system, to turning a strange place into home or what the meaning of life is…most of the time, he has the answers. The question is: Will he make himself understood? Subscribe and find out!

it is also interesting the idea of some personal magnetic field that can affect technology, and the weird notion that some intense situations can stop technology from working properly lol
still, the craziest one must be Dong pretending to be a girl to charm guys! lol
