Column writing wasn’t his only calling in life though as he would later show off his talents in more media-savvy environments such as the, now defunct, television network Tech TV, where he was a very intrepid contributor. He is also currently the VP of the company Mevio.

Background Check

John graduated from Berkley, University of California earning a degree for history. After that he decided to start writing special periodicals for the column he would later start officially. As a columnist he has written articles for many magazines including big name ones such as Boardwatch, Forbes Magazine, the official Forbes website and MacUser, He would later continue writing in more PC-specific magazine but would often times branch off into other spectrums of writing when he had the chance.

Non-Fiction writer

As a writer he has dipped his toes outside the comfort zone of simple article writing and has written a slew of informational texts and books, one such book entitled “Hypergrowth: The Rise and Fall of the Osborne Computer Corporation” As well as the book “Dvorak’s Guide to Desktop telecommunications”. Both books were written in the 1990’s but his most recent book, at the start of the Internet’s boom was “Online! The Book” with help from techie-icon Chris Pirillo.
