An Honest Windows 7 Review
,----[ Quote ]
| I just read this excellent review of the Windows 7
| Professional [sic] edition by Ramon Cahenzli. Itâs really
| well written, especially as I assume English is not his
| native language, detailed, funny and very poignant.
|
| I wish Iâd written it. But then that would mean Iâd have
| to buy Windows which isnât something I really want or need
| to do.

Does Microsoft Windows Mobile Have A Future?
,----[ Quote ]
| Name Change = Desperation
| Even Microsoft seems to know it is in trouble. One clear sign of a failing product line
| is a name change. After using Windows Mobile since the operating system's launch at the
| turn of the millennium, the company decided that phones running version 6.5 of the
| operating system will be known as Windows phones, a subtle but telling distinction.
|
| So where will Microsoft go from here? The company has put a lot of time and money into
| its mobile OS. Because of its tight connection with Microsoft Office desktop
| applications, the operating system has had significant appeal to small and medium
| businesses. But that integration also carried a price in terms of ease of use and
| performance. And the market seems to be saying Office compatibility may no longer be
| enough to compete with faster, sexier, and easier-to-use smartphones running on other
| operating systems.

Is Googleâs Android Killing Windows Mobile?
,----[ Quote ]
| I wonder if it will be too late for the company to make a comeback, similar
| to Zune struggling to playsanjay catch-up with the iPod. So while there is a
| lot of focus on Apple v Google, the real battle is actually between Microsoft
| Windows Mobile and Google Android. It looks like Google has drawn its first
| blood.
