Hi Everyone,
There is word that Microsoft will also be closing and shutting down their MSDN Service in 2014...
I am working on getting that report for all of you and the source...
They're not closing down MSDN. MSDN generates them boatloads of money, unlike TechNet. On top of that, MSDN provides production licenses for a lot of tools for the developer, not just testing versions.
I can see them moving the majority of the OS and even a lot of server licenses to their new trial services, but the MSDN itself will not be shut down as this is where all developer information is routed through.
We will see about that is you don't think MSDN wont be touched!!!
Lets wait and see by next 2ndQ or 3rdQ in 2014 if your Windows 8 SP1-8.1 don't cut it, in todays market of show at least good sales, you will see MSDN closing and shut down... Microsoft is in real big trouble at the current time, in regards to Windows 8, and major cases they have lost in the last 10 years...
I bet you sometime in late 2014 and for sure by 2015 we will also read on front page lead story Microsoft will also be putting MSDN Services to bed also and that its all about operating cost cutting...
and with that said by that time also their Smartphone deal and department would for sure be in the ground by 2015, Microsoft will never catch or touch Apple, or Samsung in our lifetime...
And when these two very predicated notes take place, this will be for sure the end of Microsoft as we all did know of Microsoft and you can for sure count on Apple, or Google taking the entire Microsoft Foundation over in the very near future, Only if the Microsoft Board and Shareholders Office want to make a last second buck, and if they don't Microsoft will Vanish and Microsoft Corp, will only be a company to only look back at in History...
As far as I am concerned Microsoft screwed their own selves and many brighter and folks who have hands on in the IT Bizz world...
Microsoft didn't and never has listened to the user, and they always liked to push garbage and more garbage on us and in the Bizz, world, the Bizz world the Enterprise Main Street, folks have made it clear and very clear, that everyone is starting to look for an alternative in regards to their systems and as soon as their support contract is up they will not be going back with Microsoft... anytime soon or anytime in the future...
Enterprise support sucks these days anyways and has for the last 7 years, all these India support Engineers don't have a clue in what is going on and never mind you cant even understand in what they are saying...
Worse of all if and when you get a Windows Engineer from the Windows Engineering and Design that's 3rd level of support God help you as a Enterprise Customer and if you have a Code or App configuration concern or question,,,,, They also have no clue, with that said what is the point of buying 100K to 300k bi-3Y or bi-500k so called top line support where you will never get the right answer and Microsoft with just the name it seems that High and very Expansive support is no longer there and hasn't been there for many years...
Ship up Microsoft or get the Hell out of the market, a good 95% of the global market has had it with you Microsoft...
If you cant handle it sell the dam thing and get the hell out and let someone else carry the dam torch and let the new operator service us...
It doesn't matter one way or the other Microsoft is over!!! Google, and Apple and Others, will make sure to that and matter of fact most of their hardware partners as walking and not signing up with Microsoft and their games and crap, crap, crap...
Sorry folks I have had it with all the jerks and heads at Microsoft, and so has millions of other folks and companies here in North America and all around the world...
Microsoft Change or Sell the Dam thing and get out of the IT Game Once and For All, and the sooner it will be for the better...
Its a Disgrace and Microsoft should be ashamed on what they are trying to pull off and man oh man that Windows 8 what a bunch or garbage, and that's what it will be and only will be, and the so called Windows 8 SP1 Windows 8.1...who are you trying to fool Microsoft???? Free Update??? for garbage???
Microsoft can keep it, I know I wont be and the network of people, and companies that I contract my services out to wont be touching the Windows 8 Nightmare...
