Pretty cool! Pics at the link.

I watched the streaming MS Devices event live and was impressed at this as well as the Surface Pro 4. HaloLens, XBox One with W10, 2 new Lumia phones, Continueum and more covered.

W10 after 10 weeks has 110+ active users.

It was amazing...I thought the hinge was odd at first...but then when they removed the screen I realized that’s why it was designed like that.

Simply amazing! Microsoft has some swagger back.

Ok...I’m stupid. What’s the difference between a tablet and a laptop?

I'm looking forward to it. My 2011 MBP is getting long in the tooth. I hear Apple is coming out with a ring soon.

An major rumor I heard just before this event is that Google may be about to introduce a major suite of apps for Windows 10: Google Mail, Google Search with Google Now, Google Maps, Google Docs, and YouTube. And they may be available late this year. Just these additions could make Windows 10 Mobile phones very desirable all of a sudden.

Shocking....I don’t like it any better than a MacBook. MuSoft should stick with styling PC people like. Mac people aren’t going to want it no matter what it looks like, and PC people don’t want a wannabe Mac.

Well, there is a pretty little device.
May be forced to go and have a little look at one of those.

Hardware cannot overcome the biggest negative a Windows machine has.... and that’s Windows itself.
