Windows 10: Microsoft is looking a lot like Apple and Nadella like...

Sounds good but will it actually happen? I'm not holding my breath.

Windows 10: Icons and cursor problem

I can't imagine an Apple user ever having to do something this technical. Please note Mr. Nadella's new direction. I hope Microsoft software engineers can make that happen, but as long as the user has to do something like this, Microsoft will continue
to lose support in the marketplace to other vendors.

 

MS Surface Phone

Not sure what happened to the MS mobile team? Mobile is indispensable in everyone life and giving up the mobile market is not good for market strategy for a company like MS.

I would like to invite
Satya Nadella to say something about the future development of windows phone. This is an ethical responsibility to the MS customers at large.

I'm one of the windows 10 insiders from desktop to my 950XL phone, I'm looking forward to see MS teams to keep developing new products to improve our lives. Competitions to Google and Apple are good things to see by all the customers.

Can somebody in MS say something? Thanks.

 

I call bullocks on that. mac sales might be up, but it's a starfish in a sea of whales. mac sales occur because they don't last that long and become unsupported by apple after so long. A macbook from 2008 might be able to run Yosemite, earlier you're probably out of luck. On the Windows PC side, people can still run modern Windows versions on a Pentium 4 based system from 10 years ago usually just fine. I was reading an article about a Windows convert to mac and they started saying they were tech oriented and their bit about mac maintenance is as easy as setting up an appointment at your local apple store; whereas dealing with Dell in figuring out an issue with a charger was too much of a hassle... I just love those stories because it's ALWAYS someone coming from the dirt cheap, scummy PC brands to a mac and claiming they've been touched by the hand of God.

The whole ipad being picked up as the most adopted technology ever, that's still yet to be declared as ipad sales aren't that great compared to iphone sales. They do sell a lot, but not iphone proportions and not like Windows 8.1's marketshare.

But I wholly agree that Microsoft has abused Windows. It took Windows 8 to literally put them back on track because before that, no one would have picked apart Windows in every aspect and category against competing platforms such as the UI to the UX to features to hardware. Say what you want about Windows 8, but it did reinvigorate Microsoft (although in reality, Windows Phone takes that claim I find). Ever since the Nokia take over and release of Windows Phone 8.1, it's been all ios and android first and best, Windows all the way last and mediocre. It's not a good sign when the company that makes the platform doesn't put all their efforts first and foremost behind Windows. How does one expect to really cherish Windows when the maker doesn't care that much for it?

Maybe Windows 10 will change that, but from what I can tell, it already is. I think the fact that people can get the latest Windows for FREE, that's probably going to change expectations. That's huge right there.

 

It is a lie. You click on the link a get a jolly fat white guy (who may like a mac) then you click on the next link and get a golly skinny indian guy with EXACTLY the same name (who may like a mac)

I bought a macbook pro recently with out any help.

I just gave them the money - it wasn't that hard really.
