I have to run Android and pretend to be too stupid to learn windows because I 💕ve in the United States but I am so grateful to know the truth. I am aware of the fact that I am an exception to the rule. I wasn't worth it. But thank you anyway. <3 |
Cheap?
Looking over amazon sales and saw Quote:
Microsoft Authorized refurbisher certified even. Pretty cheap in my neck of the country. Only 6 left from what I can tell. |
Interesting article:
Microsoft's GitHub Copilot Sued Over 'Software Piracy on an Unprecedented Scale' - Slashdot I'm no expert here, but it looks like someone's robot is feeding on code. Well, at least it's not feeding on people. :D |
Good comparison

Rolling eyes even. I can see you make friends easily. I still think it is a good article. Even though older gear and window mangers were not covered. Only so much can be put in a blog as we all know before folks lose interest.

That's informed opinion.

I think that "the operating system is not the point." You run whatever you need to run, to run the programs you want to use. Microsoft has some very good(!) software, and it runs only on Windows. If you need that, buy it and be happy: they came by their millions honestly. Choose your cart, then buy the horse that pulls it.

That is indeed correct. One of the most interesting books by Microsoft that I have read – part of a series – was written by the team lead of the group which rewrote "Word for Mac" so that it used the same code base as "Word for Windows." This subsequently became the basis for converting (almost ...) all of "Microsoft Office." There is now "only one cross-platform system." Microsoft has always been a big supporter of Apple and vice-versa, despite their "press rivalry."
But there are other Microsoft products which rely on foundation technologies that are only available in Windows. Windows is "the basement of the software 'stack.'" And it works. It took them a long time to finally realize how to package and deploy Windows, but they finally did. And, like Linux and *nix, it is now a robust and reliable system that scales well. |
