I just think that there is a hell of a lot depending on the forthcoming Windows 10 to the future of Microsoft, Apple are top of the tree and its a long haul for Microsoft to be able to reach that summit. I have used Microsoft products since Win 3.11 and despite many disaster, which still occur, I have stuck by them. But its getting more difficult by the year apps are released on rival platforms, even before Windows devices themselves, which is hard to stomach, so you can only hope that the current hierarchy know what they are doing, if not then there isn't much hope. As I say, fingers crossed for Windows 10.
