Wordpro is still available internally to anyone who wants to install it, for free. Of course 'support' is kind of a quaint thing as nothing's really 'supported'. The only difference between 'support' and as-is is that the help desk tells you to sod off right away vs cut a ticket and let it die doing nothing.
Half the population lives below even THEIR poverty line? Every year about a million of them die from drowing, malaria etc. And of course PsychoIslam Headchopping is making significant inroads. I really can't think of a more pointless idea than this.
It's like the homebuilt PC market (which still sort of exists), such as Cube where the 'basic' model is little more than a motherboard into which you have buy all the extras that make it work, like RAM or non volitile SSD. It's like the new batch of $99 tablets purported to do 'everything' except of course for anything. It's like ordering a new Levovo Yoga and you discover that getting enough SSD to make it practical doubles the price.
The funny thing is that apps are so bloated and so awful that even getting the most hardware you can afford is really only the difference between doesn't work at all and runs so poorly you think it doesn't work at all. My office laptop is a Toshiba R840 with 8GB RAM and a quad core CPU, a 500GB rotating drive and between the Java shit, management apps, endpoint agents, background tasks and 'automatic' updates it's a piece of shit that spends all day thrashing its brains out.
MS is simply being lazy because if they told you what you really need you'd be forced to get a bigger machine than most people want to pay for. And after all they didn't say HOW it would run, only that would start (maybe).
7" is more or less what a $300 phablet is. Of course w/o the phone part. Bum some free WiFi and go to town. Facebook and twitter should give these out for FREE. Of course $99 to run Windows isn't going to be functional for much else but who cares?
DHL Global Mail is slightly slower than me walking to wherever the shit is sent from, picking it up myself and walking back home again. 4 WEEKS to get something from Boston to Raleigh? Or maybe 12 days stuck somewhere in Georgia?
Incandescent bulbs are designed to be always on. When you turn them on is when they blow out. CFLs and LEDS are designed to be on and off. Too much heat build up from uninterrupted use will kill them. So '50,000' hrs isn't supposed to be 50,000 continuous hrs.
LEDs are FAR FAR more sensitive to bad manufacturing tolerances which is why cheaper, relatively speaking, units are such shit. On the other hand a quality unit from Cree is probably going to last as long as it should. I would also stay away from dim-able bulbs since they require more circuitry. Same with dim-able CFLs. The transformers are fragile enough as it is.
LEDs, while they are very bright for the energy they use, throw off fantastic amounts of heat given their overall power consumption. This is why large LEDs like floodlights actually look like radiators with their backing fins. Without them LED's would self destruct in minutes. This is relevant in a high hat or recessed lamp. Too much heat build up and they blow.
CFL's don't generate much heat but their transformers do. And it's the transformers that usually dies before the CFL tube. Again, a poorly made or mounted fixture will collect more heat and kill the bulb that much faster, maybe even start a fire.
Obama's views on nuclear weapons are shaped by the 'neo realists' of Dr Ken Waltz. And Waltz believed proliferation was a GOOD thing not a bad thing, that the MORE countries have atomic weapons the MORE stable the world is. Waltz, and his acolytes Walt and Mearscheimer have Obama's ear on this topic more than any other advisers. This is why Obama quietly doesn't really worry about Iran. He would like to see them acquire The Bomb.
To the 10 or 15% who are early adopters maybe. To everyone else, no. Doesn't matter never mattered never will. And for what it's worth most carriers tweak their images so much they eat up all performance variables with their shit code and bloatware. Moreover, if you're a Sprint customer, you don't have a network unless you're on WiFi, so performance is meaningless bullshit anyway.

Apple will now buy them and proceed to sue every single carbon based life form on earth that uses 'glass'.
Is exterminate all the white people. Except of course for MSNBC viewers. Sure it's tough solution but.....the TREES!
Awww poor baby.
Only patent holders suing everyone for the right to never produce anything.

So they can send a squadron of attorneys to sue Samsung.

America needs a good plague. Kill them all.
You pay to have MS grant you permission to use it the way they want you to.

No one actually believes what they say anymore.
Maybe C+ is a good enough achievement.
Everything would be a worthless paperweight, depending on the size and everyone would communicate face to face like before Alexander Bell.
All encryption is instantly breakable by anyone in under 30 seconds. Less if you have tattoos.

MS, like Apple and Google, simply purchase the laws they need to operate and buy the courts they need to enforce them. Everyone knows that.
Time for an invasion
No, I don't but thanks for the snark. On you it's fucking cute.
