The New 'One Microsoft' Is Finally Poised For the Future
redletterdave writes: "The stodgy old enterprise company whose former CEO once called open source Linux a 'cancer' is gone. So is its notorious tendency to keep developers and consumers within its walled gardens. The 'One Microsoft' goal that looked like more gaseous corporate rhetoric upon its debut last summer now is instead much closer to actual reality. No longer are there different kernels for Windows 8, Windows Phone or Windows RT it's now all just One Windows. As goes the Windows kernel, so goes the entire company. Microsoft finally appears to have aimed all its guns outside the company rather than at internal rivals. Now it needs to rebuild its empire upon this new reality."

Evidently, Microsoft's UI was designed for users with longer arms. The ones that drag on the ground when they walk.
OK, gotta go now. [Ducking and running]
Have gnu, will travel.
>Microsoft 'supports' VB6 just enough that shills and sycophants like you can write posts saying they still support it.
Why didn't you just say that you're an idiot?
