In this episode of TechWatch Radio, Sam Bushman and Jay Harrison break down the real cost of cutting corners in IT services. From weak cybersecurity measures to incomplete backups and fine-print exclusions in managed service contracts, they share firsthand insights on why "you get what you pay for" rings especially true in the tech world. They also revisit the old Sears & Roebuck “good, better, best” model and apply it to modern IT decisions - advocating for a balanced, thoughtful approach to tech investment rather than choosing the cheapest or flashiest option.
Then the conversation pivots to mobile service plans, where the hosts discuss the postpaid “top-tier” options from major carriers like Verizon and T-Mobile may not be worth the hype; or the price tag. They highlight the benefits of MVNOs like Tello and Visible, which offer surprisingly good coverage and flexibility at a fraction of the cost. With plans as low as $5/month, and no contracts or bundled fluff, these alternatives can be game-changers for families and budget-conscious users alike. They wrap up with a fun note on how ChatGPT hilariously lost a chess match to a 1979 Atari 2600, underscoring that even high-tech AI has its blind spots.
