    Microsoft reportedly dropping Nokia brand this year

    They have no clue what they're doing. Unless this is specified by contract I don't see a reason for this at all as Nokia has awesome brand recognition.

    Microsoft has begun rebranding Nokia apps

    They would be insane if they remove Nokia branding from hardware.

    Microsoft Kills Update 2 and Patch Tuesday

    You would like metro apps to act like desktop windows? That's bold, but that also asks the question why do we need metro then? I love the separation between lightweight metro apps and desktop environment. My mail, calculator, calendar, etc are all left in metro and I dotn want them to intrude on...

    Increase to OneDrive storage plans announced

    I don't find appeal in any of mainstream online storages due to lack of local folder synchronization with multiple devices. Dropbox is fine if you are working on small scale.

    The Desktop will be going away in Threshold...kind of.

    Desktop as we know it needs a change big time! Unnecessary overlapping windows with directory branching on the side just shows how confusing navigation is and how bloated user infrastructure is. Completely unnecessary. Should have changed ten years ago but when you have monopoly you simply don't...

    Users to the Rescue: Microsoft Listening to Consumer FB..

    That will never happen. MS is all about backward compatibility and there is no way in hell they will make a cut like Apple does. Unfortunately.

    Windows 8.1 Update 1 leaked

    Yes windows overlapping is not the way to go, split screen is way more efficient but problem lays in desktop apps that do not sport ribbon interface. If you take some app like Photoshop you will see that it spans tools and tabs vertically both left and right which significantly kills screen...

    Windows 8.1 Update 1 leaked

    Thank you I missed #6 somehow. Hmmm why you have to click Stop naming groups? Could you just click away in empty space to apply changes.? This integration between Modern and Desktop is getting messy as we can see. Do we know if this Update will recognize if you are clicking on a mouse or...

    Windows 8.1 Update 1 leaked

    Me too have no problem with Win8 concept. Actually I think they are onto something with vertical screen splitting. Its much more effective than windows (especially if you are on OSX) and hopefully one day Desktop apps will be able to do that but for now side by side will do it. Everybody was...

    Windows 8.1 Update 1 leaked

    I think these changes tell you more about user's core than about the product itself. If you have to put a search button on SS then something is seriously wrong in 2014. Instead of just typing, their user prefers to click on the button first and then type. Also right click context menu, besides...

    Windows 8.1 Update 1: Everything we know so far

    I welcome any change as long as its an option or part of the customization. Flexibility was always Windows perk. Now regarding start screen, modern apps and desktop its really all about adjusting your workflow. For me Start Screen is a desktop replacement, because lets face it, when you boot...
