Hey people are getting fatter and fatter and something has to get thin. Apple is doing world a favor. We need to maintain equilibrium.

From the blog at https://blogs.windows.com/msed... there are two differences
1. It does not expose the bindings to Windows platform
2. Instead of COM based diagnostic APIs, there provide a different set for Open source one.

because it is already well trenched. Abandoning now will create problems to already existing applications that depends on JavaScript. Also some of the JavaScript frameworks has made maintaining the code much easier.

I am not trolling, I do not understand the target market for this costly laptop.
1. Developers would rather have lots of RAM and disk space, they can have those systems with better CPU for far less than what this thing costs
2. Obviously not for gamers, the system does not have powerful GPU
3. Regular users now are moving away from laptop.
MS had to write off on Surface inventory recently as well. What does MS achieve from this Surface book and Surface Pro when it is not making profit?

That Surface book looks nice (obviously time will tell how it will perform). It looks to corner the high end laptop market.
Next few weeks OEMs are bringing out their new hardware. Let us see how they compete with MS offerings

Obama and Duncan sends their children to schools that refuse to associate with the policies that these guys says good for kids. (Usually the pretense of NOT sending kids to public school is security, here Duncan goes on to say they are doing it to keep it simple.) May be their kids are beyond these policies. Like erstwhile Soviet Union, all are equal but some are more equal.

We need to see how they work with other start-ups and third party companies. Since the complete details are not disclosed, does this mean, MS is not going to sue other Android marketeers?

I dont think you have ever used Android on Tablets. Even the Google apps are nothing but blown-up phone apps.
It is not just me telling that. Go and read some tech reviewers view as well. Here is one from Arstechnica http://arstechnica.com/gadgets...

That's what I am asking when we can get BT keyboard for $25 why pay fucking 150 bucks.

It would have been much better going Chrome instead of Android. Blown-up phone apps are horrendous on Android tablets. Why would a keyboard cost so much? With all these new keyboard, pen attachments with Tablets, I think MS was on right track on Surface (not the pro). But was executed as usual badly.

Hence apple introduced new thing called "Pencil" for $99. They had to bring in MS to demonstrate how to use that thing.

That's exactly I thought. Noodling is the word we use here in south.

This is the classic example of how to promote without really promoting.
Take this line from the article. It should say it all

"The promotion will leave Ive with more time to travel around Apple's vast retail empire and bring his touch to the company's stores around the globe, while leading the design of Apple's new campus which has capacity for 13,000 Apple employees."

He might have been a disaster as a manager. Now they want to replace him.

Wow Brother. Can you please tell me how you feel about that MS metro design?

give them voting rights too. Ask them to pay taxes as well. Especially social security. Well make sure they are not suppose to use brains like humans and submit to their corporate over lords.
