Microsoft Corp (MSFT)

[DocLevi]

So it was on an upgrade of MSFT to 50-something, (coming into current processing)... Ah and then came... What the industry seems to be calling cloud networking (reminds me of DEC [Digital Equipment Corp.] Clustering in the VAX/VMS environment) so I'm thinking companies could go with HIVE, Nuage (ALU) or maybe something Cisco maybe offering (again too lazy to look) along with Red Hat's Linux to save money on Windows...

And even more strange... while MS Office for smart phones keeps users hooked on Microsoft Office it also free them from Windows.

okay so blah, blah from here on... lol
I have no idea why they couldn't understand that keeping phone/tablet O/S separate from PC use was not the problem it was the functionality of its phone O/S versus the other choices.

Nobody can type fast on a touch screen and without having to look as one can on a typewriter keyboard (another poo from MS for almost forever until 8.1 as now I actually have to use that Windows key for returning to desktop mode... I did learn to hit Windows key and M to minimize all before that.... I've had every, and I mean every version of Windows except Vista (for home and some Professional versions, I'd buy Professional every time if I could but preconfigured computers don't come with restore CD/DVD's [and now good luck just finding one with DVD as they want thin so no room] so if I got Pro I'd have to add it from a download without a way to reinstall it... Not one version of every version that I've had have I've not had to reinstall from system backup ... except 8.1 as its about 2 months old the previous lasted 2 days so I took back to Best Buy (delayed protection plan for touch screen, but hard disk went - so they need to be sold with solid state drives as every one, even desktops have had the drive go bad except this one and 95, on 95 I replaced as original was too small).

If it wasn't for patents they'd would've lost everything by now, but they got away with being lazy too... lol

And of course, the 90's Clinton/Reno attack on them was not absolutely without reason, back then Lotus Notes and Quatro Pro (spreadsheet) ruled until Microsoft bundled... I've had only the free temp versions bundled since on Office (except work where full version obviously).
