Bruce A. Johnson
A 1981 graduate of the Boston University College of Communication, Bruce A. Johnson got his first job in broadcast television at WFTV, an ABC affiliate in Orlando, FL. While there, he rose through the ranks from teleprompter operator to videographer, editor, producer and director of many different types of programming. It was in the early 1980's that he bought his first computer - a Timex/Sinclair 1000 - a device he hated so much, he promptly exchanged it for an Atari 400. But the bug had bitten hard. In 1987, Johnson joined Wisconsin Public Television in Madison as a videographer/editor, and still works there to the present day. His responsibilities have grown, however, and now include research and presentations on the issues surrounding the digital television transition, new consumer technology and the use of public television spectrum in homeland security. He freelances through his company Painted Post MultiMedia, and has written extensively for magazines including DV and Studio Monthly.

Panasonic Toughbook for $349???If you need a truly TOUGH notebook, here it is! Yeah, it ain’t the latest and greatest, and will need a RAM upgrade right out of the box, but if you need a really TOUGH laptop (and I’m looking at YOU, field teleprompter operators) you cannot beat this deal at Geeks.com. Jeez, the thing even has a touchscreen! Use the savings code TUFBOOK to lower the price to an insane $349. This is the machine I see in police cars and the hands of all the telecom repair guys, and if THEY can’t break it, no one can! Are You A Wireless Outlaw?Here’s Where You Find Out A side-effect of the Digital Television Transition (remember that?) comes home to roost on June 12, 2010. That’s the day that wireless microphone systems you own might be ILLEGAL to operate, as decreed by the FCC. They insist it is time to scrap any wireless that operates in the 700 megahertz band. “But Bruce,” I hear you saying, “I don’t want to be a criminal!! How do I know if my wireless system is legal?” Let me help you out, friend. Click on this link to be taken to the FCC’s official list of the outlaw wirelesses. You’re welcome. Glad to be of service! I looked up my two systems - an old Samson UM1 and a much newer Sennheiser EW100G2 -and luckily, neither made the list. But below, let’s talk. Now, no one here - not PVC, and certainly not me - condones lawbreaking of ANY type. Still, what will YOU do if you find your cherished wireless on the list?

Intriguing Mac Rumor…Apple Lays Off 40 From FCP Group? I’m no Mac guy, but I have admired Final Cut Pro from a distance for many years now. I was always under the impression that ProApps was a main leg of the Mac stool, but as others have pointed out, there’s been no DVD Studio Pro update in a long while. Now a Twitter post portends an interesting turn: What does it all mean? I sure don’t know. What do you think?
