In the latest Computing podcast, we discuss the issues behind the stories making the news this week. In this podcast:

Computing recently interviewed Dell founder and chief executive Michael Dell. We examine the issues facing the supplier 18 months after Dell - the person - returned to lead Dell - the company.

In the last week, Microsoft has released the beta test version of Internet EXplorer 8, and Google has launched Chrome, its first web browser. We look at the key features of both products and evaluate the benefits for business users.
