    What's your single favorite game you've played? And Why?

    Fallout 2. I think it does not require any explanations. Tried to install it on my Surface 3, but it's so old that it does not work with touch screen. Even the unofficial patch was of little help. Id buy a remastered version at a premium price, but unfortunately this is not going to happen :(

    Share your Windows Phone History!

    Lumia 800 > Lumia 620 > Lumia 930 I bought 930 two years ago and still use it as my only phone. I don't know what I will do when it dies and hope it will not be very soon, may be couple more years, so Microsoft finally release a new phone (or better a Windows 10 on ARM PC in phone's form)

    Why *haven't* you bought a Lumia 950?

    I'm not considering 950 because of three reasons. The first: I bought 930 last spring (less than a year ago), and 950 is not so much an improvement over 2 years old 930. The second: I will never use continuum for work, because i can't imagine working without a pen, also don't have any tv or...

    How many people actually use Apps?

    The only desktop apps I used on Windows 8 on my Surface Pro were Photoshop and Illustrator. I loved modern IE full screen mode. Now taskbar eats some vertical space along with tabs and address bar. The same with Skype, desktop version just does not fit the scree when touch keyboard is opened...
