Experian, the company that T-Mobile uses to confirm customers' credit-worthiness has been hacked, exposing data about 15 million customers who signed up between September 2013 and last month. Adobe's updated Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements bring welcome features to the consumer-level applications. In Short Circuits: Skype offers a gift that most people won't be able to use; In Los Angeles, Adobe Max wowed the 7000 who attended; and Microsoft announced the new Surface Pro 4. In Spare Parts (only on the website): A small party that's participating in Swiss elections calls itself the Anti-PowerPoint Party, It's October, so stores want you to start thinking about spending money for Christmas presents, and a beer fridge (available only in California now) connects to your Wi-Fi system so you'll know when you're running low.
