    I really want to ditch my crappy iPhone 6 Plus for a Lumia 950! It will be a godsent!

    Does anyone know how I could disassemble a Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse?

    I apologize for not being able to post pictures as I've been too busy to visit the forums lately! Fortunately, Witsarut was kind enough to post his own!

    That would be interesting indeed but I don't think I'll like that. Hahaha! XD​

    That's actually a pretty good question. But, nah, I doubt it. ;)

    No. She's just a mascot created for marketing purposes. Given the anime marketing track record of MS Japan, I'm sure they'll release a Windows 10 theme and sound bank of this new mascot when it gets released in Japan though.

    Well, it's not like the Windows development and Japanese marketing teams are the same people. The mascot thing also has good reception in Japan so I'm sure Microsoft Japan just wants to milk that cow. Haha! :P

    I also think that Juubei is one of the possible names that would be submitted. I have a few ideas of my own too. I can think of Ichiko and Kazushi (both written as 一子 meaning one and child, "One Windows to rule them all" after all!) or Kanna and Michiru (both written as 十 which means the number...

    "Chan" is a Japanese honorific suffix usually added to names for endearment. It's usually used for children, teens and close friends and family that are typically younger (with exceptions) and is also used with pets and other cute animals. It's typically rude to use the suffix to address people...

    Microsoft has revealed the anime mascot for Windows 10

    It is a typically Japan-only (or Asian-only) thing so most people outside the region would have never heard of their mascots. Here's a list of the past mascots for those who are curious... EDIT: I added some videos! It started with Windows 7 and her name is Nanami Madobe: Here's a commercial...

    Does anyone know how I could disassemble a Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse?

    It's been a long time since I posted above but I guess I should say how I was able to do it! The removable part of the mouse is the top cover (which includes the left and right button areas). It can be easily removed by wedging a spudger under the right mouse button area and going around until...

    Microsoft has revealed the anime mascot for Windows 10

    Like I said in the title, Microsoft has revealed the face of their new anime mascot for Windows 10. For those who were following on the official mascots which started with Windows 7 (Nanami Madobe), she's also from the Madobe family though she is from 100 years in the future. She will be voiced...

    Does anyone know how I could disassemble a Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse?

    My Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse's scroll wheel has been acting weird lately. I have a feeling it is now full of cat fur and I wish to clean it but I can't figure out how to open this rodent! Couldn't find any teardown videos or tutorials of it. I couldn't find any screws, at least not...
