James Gaskin started providing technical answers for readers and clients in his trademark "unbiased and unboring" way back in 1984. Talk Is Cheap, book number 16, continues his tradition of helping readers choose and use the right technology for their small to medium sized business. Published book #17 is about Texas, not technology: Texas Hysterical Society

Whenever he wants to avoid computers, James plays classical chamber music on the violin and tennis (but not at the same time) in the Dallas area. And sometimes he plays new music on old instruments.
