Earlier today, I was very excited to announce our new Smell of Books product, but now it seems that we have a small problem. An organization calling itself “The Authors Guild” has just sent DuroSport a threatening letter. I believe that this so-called guild is some kind of government department that oversees the bohemians who …

Some of our older customers will remember that many years ago, DuroSport created special software for reading electronic books on the Tandy computer system. Our book reader was revolutionary at the time, as are all of the things we do here at DuroSport. Unfortunately, we discontinued the product because everyone in the world was moving …

Some of you have wondered where our Chief Product Engineer Vladimir Concescu has gone. “Where is Vladimir? Is he working on the Pütz? When will the Pütz be available at The Best Buy?” These are common questions that I have been asked almost every day for the past three months. Unfortunately, until last week, I …
Stupid people are the reason why I originally wanted to outsource our customer support to The Geek Squad. Who better to deal with stupid customers but the stupid geeks? Everyone once in a while, we get a complaint. This is very rare. You will have a hard time finding someone who has something bad to …
In my day, I have had more than my share of problems with an organization known as The Geek Squad.
