so please stop designing your products to grab focus. It pisses me off. "You appear to be entering a password in another application, so we thought you would like a Microsoft product to grab focus right now. "

I understand the desire to bridge the gap between phone, tablet, and full-blown computer, but MS went too far for the desktop/laptop market. But I use each item for different tasks, because each is suited for different tasks. I don't need or want a touch-style-inspired interface on my desktop or laptop.

I hardly think BG even focuses on whats up with MS. Hes like retired and doing great charity work.

Android and iOS already own that mobile market and MS will never be anything more then 3rd place in that, IMO.

So I don't need that gap bridged because the only device I'll own that is MS will be my computer. My mobile life will always be Android or iOS for the foreseeable future with no MS in sight. And after the XBOX one release I'll be buying a PS4 instead so even that inroad is lost on me and many others.

No it isn't. They are adding a totally worthless Start button that instead of giving you the Start Menu, takes you back to the Metro interface. :thumbsdown:

See this thread.

so please stop designing your posts to grab focus. It pisses me off. You appear to be overreacting to something meaningless, so we thought you would like to know that nobody alive or dead ever cared.

I may be ignorant in regards to the topic at hand, but I question if the mirror is in front of you when you bring up retard. :colbert:

He's obviously winning when compared to most on this board.
 
Not just MS. My favorite is when you're typing something in the address bar of a browser and it finishes loading or something and wipes everything you're writing.
 
How DARE you complain that I liked the previous way of doing things?

Newer is always better. And more expensive.
