    Can we work without Google services in Windows 10 S ?

    Am Amazon showed with Alexa how to connect different Smart appliances to the smart environment you are talking about, maybe they are using parts of Google's software but it is not a Google product, so things can be done with different approach. The smart devices are "talking" by protocols, app...

    Share your Best Surface Pro 4 Accessories!

    For me the most needed accessories are External HDD and the SD card, I wish MSFT would enable the option to store the store apps on the SD card, it will be easier to transfer them to a different machine when needed, I know the store remembers them in your account but you still need to install...

    How does one use the Surface Pen on the Surface Laptop?

    As part of the surface family the Laptop can handle pen input. Does a laptop need Touch Screen....? I don't think so, I would have preferred a dedicated slot for smart pen holder. Instead of using the screen having the option to jot things down on a surface (not the device:wink:) and the writing...

    Can we work without Google services in Windows 10 S ?

    What's the problem? you can use MSFT solutions, if it doesn't work for you don't choose S. Some people got used to google services some got hooked on them, you got a choice. Instead of gmail you can use outlook.com, instead of docs use office, use bing and bing maps, maybe it's not the best for...

    The form factor

    The Surface Laptop from MSFT is the new definition for working. Looking brilliant and having the power to last at least 4 years of college, it can be the right choice for many. If it will show it's power in the fields of studies for most students, it will be a success. I don't think it is...

    Will the Windows 10S will be dominating?

    I must say it is good MS decided to try the new OS one a different device. They took a laptop and equipped it with a system that uses apps from the store instead of full windows ecosystem. There is a way to change to a full system, but will you need it? Students usually use certain apps on...

    Windows 10S

    You can say it is another try by MS to launch the RT version of Windows, maybe this time they learned :wink: Microsoft is going the way of Google trying to migrate PC and phones to use one steamed line app store. Is it more secure? There are many malware both in Google store and some in apple...
