Sunday, April 12, 2009 at 4:56PM Ok, ok, if I give Apple dedicated one thing, they are pretty… The devices that is. Beyond that, there are a few issues that keep getting put out in criticism of these ads.
Apple, Commentary, Microsoft Wednesday, April 8, 2009 at 9:45PM Well, there are now finally some ads to combat the Apple PC vs. Mac ads. Microsoft has decided to start what looks like a “real” ad campaign. I have been listening to and reading the commentary from around the internet and it is all over the board. The one note of guarantee was from the die-hard Mac crowd. They HATE, H A T E, these ads.
Commentary, Microsoft Sunday, October 26, 2008 at 7:42PM I love Leo Laporte and many of the others out there but as I was listening to the latest Windows Weekly, I caught Leo quipping about how few people must be buying Windows Mobile Devices. Well, given that HTC sell 10s of millions of phones every year and they only make WinMo based phones, I would respond to Leo with LOADS! They are also not the only company making WinMo devices.
Microsoft, Windows Mobile Monday, October 20, 2008 at 7:43PM Before, I said that I did not understand why people did not like WinMo. That is not entirely true…
Microsoft, Windows Mobile Thursday, October 16, 2008 at 6:51PM In the last few days, I have heard several podcasts that have just beat up on Windows Mobile. I really do not understand why. I plan on commenting more on this but I really feel that it is not warranted or at the least, it is being exaggerated greatly.
Microsoft, Windows Mobile Sunday, October 12, 2008 at 5:53PM Engadget Mobile picked up on a story about the possibility of Microsoft taking advantage of the market conditions and buying Research In Motion (RIM) (Not the first time this rumor has floated around either), the makers of the all popular Blackberry. I have been thinking about this for the last few days…
Activesync, Blackberry, Microsoft, RIM, Windows Mobile Sunday, October 12, 2008 at 5:33PM For whatever screwed up reason, Microsoft never bothered to put a full browser into Windows Mobile, EVER. Even the latest WinMo version 6.1 does not have a good browser. The only alternative out there has been Opera Mobile. It is not bad but it does not support as many of the Web 2.0 features out there when viewing pages in normal desktop browser mode. Opera Mobile 9.5 beta is a major step up from version 8.65 but it is still a bit problematic.
Thursday, October 9, 2008 at 8:53PM About a year ago, we(My Wife and I) bought our first license of Vista. It came with a new laptop I bought for her. I left it installed as I was curious and from what I had seen in the reviews, it was supposedly easily used by novice or average computer users.
At first, everything was neat and cute but I found it progressively frustrating and within about 2 months, my wife wanted it uninstalled and XP installed in its place.
Microsoft, Review, Windows, Windows Vista Friday, October 3, 2008 at 10:06AM It has just come out that Microsoft has every intention to release either a Zune that is a phone or to further extend the functionality of their Windows Mobile operating system by adding Zune software to it.
