OneDrive Uninstaller
One this with Microsoft that I learned a long time ago is that you never can trust a company that likes to control what they install on your computer. OneDrive is a great example of that and for those user's who don't use OneDrive and have no use for Microsoft's online folder. Here are the instructions on how to remove. But there is no telling if Microsoft will again try to re-install it's bundled software in future updates.

Crash Plan No Home Plans
Looks like Crash Plan is getting out of the home business and consumers now are forced to look else where to find a replacement.
Like any backup company, I would not worry to much but keep your eye's open until your plan expires for companies that will make it worth while for a switch.

Kapersky Alert
This is a very touchy subject and even after the report, I am still uncertain. It could just be government boycott of the product but from what I see more information should be made available for user's to make a final decision. Don't just go by what they want you to do. You decide.

Y2k38
Looks like there will be a new problem for 32 bit computers in the year 2038 and it's basically a computation problem. Doesn't mean that your computer will stop working, just that it's calculations will be off when counting.
Like Y2K, there is plenty of time to fix the problem and for someone to make an update fix. But
just comes to show you that within time, technology always needs to be upgraded.

FBI Surveillance Van
This looks like a flashback to the days when the FBI would do counter surveillance on individuals, it would have been nice if they included a certified letter stating that this vehicle was used to catch a notorious mob gangster and then I could see the value going up.
