Sadly monday 20 june 2026 John C Dvorak passed away at the age of 74, or actually 80! He turned out to be 6 years older than previously stated on his Wikipedia page. He sadly succumbed to complications due to his bypass surgery in march.
For over twenty years I read his columns. Listened to his appearances on This week in tech, the Cranky Geeks, DHUnplugged and above all No Agenda with Adam Curry. A very witty man, with loads of knowledge on just about every subject, but mainly wine and computers ;). And a story for just about any situation.
He’ll be greatly missed, it was very weird and emotional when he didn’t appear on the first No Agenda show 1888 last thursday. As Adam read his obituary, there wasn’t a dry eye in the trollroom! (which is the No Agenda IRC channel).
I’ll add some nice links here below.
