On this week's show, heard at 18:00 UTC, 2 pm Eastern, 11 am Pacific in the 
US, 7 pm in the UK and 8 pm in Central Europe, we'll first take our usual 
sideways look at the news.

The second half of the program will ask the question "who controls your 
computer?"  With Microsoft ceasing to support Windows XP at the end of the 
year, and various other programs insisting you upgrade whether you want to 
or not, and the fact that if you go to Windows 7 on an existing hard disk 
you'll need to reformat, thus losing your programs - and heaven help you if 
they're not backed up, plus Microsoft starting to make more and more use of 
the "cloud" - apps on the internet rather than on your own machine - are you 
still in charge of your own machine?

Answers by skype to the.global.voice, by email and MSN  to 
yourvoice at theglobalvoice.info, or if you care to phone us, use one of our 
three phone numbers found on our website, http://theglobalvoice.info.

That's the Attitude Test on Sunday at 18:00 UTC on the one and only Global 
Voice where good debate is actively encouraged.
