The Dallas Morning News.My day job is for the University of Texas at Dallas.for 20 years, so I’ve seen lots of changes in the newspaper business.
Back in the late 1990s, the Personal Technology section editor, the late Bob Bersano, asked me to start writing a weekly column called the Tech Adviser.had a great group of people producing a stand-alone Personal Technology section each week, and I was honored to be part of that group.
