    is Microsoft "dressing like" apple?

    No it did affect sales, Apple sold more. You are right, we cant know what proportion of the current userbase where happy with the changes, but we do know what proportion of iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus users feel about the changes

    is Microsoft "dressing like" apple?

    Like I said, based on sales date, a majority of Apple Fan/customers/users were happy and/or receptive to the changes and voted with their wallets. Of course, there were people who were upset. It's impossible for Apple or any company to please everyone. But those few do not represent the majority...

    is Microsoft "dressing like" apple?

    It's a slight mischaracterization to say a lot of Apple users didn't accept the changes in Apples newest products as Apple reported record sales of both Mac and iPhone led by both the iPhone 7 Plus and the new Macbook Pros sales. It is true that a vocal few in the tech media and youtube had some...

    is Microsoft "dressing like" apple?

    A quick correction, in the US the Macbook Air with an i5, 8GB RAM, and 256GB is $1199. Now the Surface does have a better screen and newer processor, but the Macbook Air is $100 cheaper. Now if you're talking about the Macbook? For an M3 Processor, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB is $1299. But the Surface...

    $999.00 PC that you can't install an alternative browser by default!?

    Chrome and Safari for the longest time used the same rendering engine WebKit, until a couple years ago when Google switched to Blink. So it wasn't hard for Google to roll out a version for iOS utilizing WebKit to comply with App Store rules seeing that Blink is a forked version of WebKit. The...

    Surface or MacBook?

    Your on a Microsoft fan site, obviously people here are going to prefer the Microsoft product over Apple's. I would however choose the Macbook as I don't care for the touch screen, and I prefer macOS.

    Has anyone actually seen a USB - C device or anything?

    Well, my main computer is a Macbook Pro with Touchbar, so my laptop has 4 USB C/Thunderbolt 3 ports. When buying it, I decided to go all in with USB C/Thunderbolt 3. So my monitor (LG Ultrafine 5K), both at home and at work, Samsung T3 External SSD, and my thunderbolt raid are all USB C. And I...

    What "MUST HAVE" functionality do you get with iPhone that's not available on W10m?

    iTunes hasnt been needed to manage an iPhone or iPad in years, Apple cut the cord with iTunes back with iOS 5 And yes, I can assure you you can use the internet without an Apple Talk Card. Lightning is so popular, the fact that it is a propiorty connector never really comes up, and since the...

    Why do many MAC OS user run Windows in parallel on their machines?

    I do it for a couple of reason. First of all, I love macOS, Ive been using Macs my entire life, so getting a PC is 1000% out of the querstion. But when I was in college, I needed Visual Studios for my C++ and C# classes, and at the time it wasnt available for the Mac, so I used Parallels. Now...
