Microsoft still giving us everything except what we really want
Imagine if you asked your son to cut your grass. When you come home from work, he washed the dishes, swept the floors, and washed the cars. But he did not cut the grass. Would you be pleased?
Microsoft is doing the exact same thing. What do we want? (1) Aero, at least as an option; (2) A proper, logical start menu; (3) Privacy; (4) The ability to control our updates; (5) The ability to permanently disable Cortana; (6) A working pre-boot F8 again. (Everything can be summed up by saying we want Windows 7 with the performance improvements of Windows 8.) What do we get? None of what we asked for. I am not pleased.
SatNad recently mentioned he was worried about a Orwellian 1984 future. Later in the same speech, he talked about the Microsoft cloud. He said this without seeing the disconnect. SatNad worries about 1984 while at the exact same time promotes technology that helps make it possible.
