It’s very interesting to see the similarities and Microsoft ripping off Apple’s terminology. http://i.i.com.com/cnwk.1d/i/tim/2012/06/21/padd-tablet-ipad-surface_imgur_610x269.jpg MS created the tablet market from what I remember and Jobs got the idea for the ipad form an MS employee that told him about the courier project....

A tweeted photo suggests that Apple is installing metal detectors at the entrance to WWDC for the first time, as CEO Tim Cook tweeted a message in support of the victims and families of the Orlando shooting. The additional security – a first for a WWDC event – is likely to be in response to the deadliest mass shooting in recent history, a gunman killing 49 people and injuring more than 50 others in a gay nightclub in Orlando over the weekend....

Microsoft Ending Free Windows 10 Upgrade Offer for Some We don’t know if this is a sign of things to come for other methods to get the free Windows 10 upgrade offer.

Here is what Microsoft had to say about its plans for Assistive Technologies users:...

At some point, you might have encountered the famous memory dump screen, which displays a cryptic error message on a blue background. Once archaic but now iconic, the blue screen of death is synonymous with catastrophic (and sometimes comedic) PC failures, and it has remained largely unchanged over the years. Microsoft did make minor updates to the appearance starting with Windows 8 in 2012. These days, you will be greeted by something less intimidating: a sad emoticon followed by an error code....

But there are many occasions where perhaps they should have called it quits. Here are five times in the MCU that Peggy should have dumped Steve, and five times he should have done the same to Agent Carter....

Microsoft has just released the Edge browser to the public - and we gave it an extensive trial run. Overall, the browser is basically everything you would expect from a modern web experience but with ads built into it.
