I’ve been rocking a Surface Pro 3 for a while now. Other than Windows Hello, I haven’t felt like I’ve been missing out on anything by not getting a newer model. Considering that it’s 5 years old now, it hasn’t really shown its age. It’s a damn tank. The screen isn’t cracked, the body is in good...

Microosft = IBM :unhappysweat: Microsft is basicly IBM now. This is the 1'st time I watched Build only to feel like Microsoft has kinda thrown in the towel. They've essentially said they're happy being the back end to everything else. But then again, Nadella is a suit. He's a coorporate guy...

Fix the tablet experience for windows 10 and make use of xamarin I've GENUINELY hated Nadella's tenure at Microsoft. He killed Windows Phone. Shrinking a target for developers. He’s let the best features of windows phone LANGUISH. Same with Windows 8.1. Virtually no features carried over...

It's been neglected. When it comes to tablet mode on Windows 10, it could use some love. The keyboard leaves much to be desired. It's missing the joystick from Windows 10 Mobile. It's got NONE of the features from SwiftKey. How about the Start Screen? It doesn't have transparent tiles from...

If the Surface Courier (that's what I'm calling it for now.) is all the WestWorld awesome as I hope it is, then I'll stand pat. I want that device on day 1. It won't stop me from getting another Surface as I'm due to replace my current pro. But I want a Lumia replacement on day 1.

I think Microsoft should NEVER have killed off Kinect. Frankly i don't think it's to late for them to reverse this BAD decision. They make LifeCam. Why not make a camera that's Windows Hello compatible, build in things like an IR blaster for controlling things like a TV or cable-box and call it...

As far as software goes, I just want the SAME apps Microsoft puts on other platforms with all the same features. See add-ins for Skype. See the pix app. The outlook app from Android instead of the mail app in windows. The list goes on. OS wise, please bring ALL the features from Windows mobile...

When the argument is that Nadella is good because the stock price is up, you've basically said, Microsoft's only real product is it's stock price, meaning it's only real customer is their investors. That's not how Apple and Google operate. And it shows when I (someone who's not a billion dollar...

True! but Microsoft has left windows mobile and windows COMPLETELY out. All their apps go everywhere but on windows devices.

My patience with Nadella is wearing VERY thin and I'm apparently not the only one. Did you like Windows Mobile, Groove, Band, KINECT? We're you really homing for a surface mini? Have you noticed that even though Microsoft owns Xamarin, there seems to be less apps in the app stores? He's the...

If Microsoft is an enterprise company, explain Xbox and the games section in the Windows Store. And the last time I checked, windows is used in enterprise as is many of the apps they have on other platforms.

Dear Microsoft! Please stop treating people on Windows 10, you know, THE OS YOU MAKE as 3rd class customers. 2017 was a kick in the teeth for a lot of Microsoft fans. Kinect, Groove, and Band being discontinued and Windows Phone being put into maintenance more were tough. But looking back on it...

I've made my peace with the demise of the Microsoft Band 2. Of all the things that Microsoft killed off in 2017, that device made a meaningful impact to my life. In late 2014, I was, by my own admission a fat little nerd. I weighed 250 LBs and at 5'8 that's bordering on morbidly obese. Then in...

Before i present this idea, follow me down a rabbit hole or 2. So i was helping my roommate with something on his Macbook Pro and I played around with touch bar. It's not enough to make me switch but it was interesting to have it. Especially when using Word or using social media. Now don't get...

Say what you want about Ballmer, he may not have always known what a winning combo looked like. But the man at least knew to step in the ring and put your fists up. How hard could it have been to simply say to the hardware department. Make a cheaper Kinect. Take the high-end Microsoft Lifecam...
