OK, here’s a question, what was Microsoft’s forecast for the Surface Pro 3 Windows 8.1 Tablet cum portable computer?
Did they meet the forecast target for that?
And here’s a more fundamental question, what was their forecast for Window 8 when it was about to be released?
I wonder if past performance is an indicator of future performance in this case ...
I’ll give them this — with Windows 10, they DID listen to all the critics and complaints about Windows 8, so it SHOULD be a better product.
But 1 billion? We shall see....

“Get a free copy of Windows with every purchase of PowerShell!” - Jeffrey Snover
Billions and Billions of unfortunate new customers who fail to realize that they are the “field test” for the new system.
Windows 8 should have been the clarion call as to just sorry Microsoft engineering is.
What happened to Windows 4, 5, 6, and 9 with a sprinkling of a few more names in the mix that were horrible systems?
Now there’s 10!!!!!! Is there any end to the Microsoft “throw away” software?
Sounds to me like the MARKETING SPIN presented before attempting the SALE of the product.
Microsoft is planning on you paying them a yearly fee to use Windows 10 like they do with Office. Once they get Windows 10 installed they will make the switch.
Just say “No” and install Linux. It puts new life into old hardware.
I can’t be to only one.
It seems that virtually everything about, not only Microsoft, all new software programs require you to be connected to use those programs.
The full integration of your desktop to the cloud?.
As if that is what I want?
It’s not.
The new MS OS’s expect that you actually WANT to conduct all your activity while “connected”, as if that is a good thing.
It’s nuts.
Back in 1999, I had this crazy thought that “The/your desktop” would become the new “Browser”.
I hate it.
I hate the OS that “tries” to help me. The OS that thinks it knows what I want to do.
