PC World - If you were going to sum up Windows 8 in a single sentence, “It’s all about the apps” would do the trick. And that’s why a new study from Soluto, a company that offers a remote troubleshooting tool for Windows PCs, suggests a somewhat stark reality for Microsoft's new-look operating system.
Microsoft is laying off more employees, a new round after they cut thousands last year. It seems like many big tech companies are doing the same.
Amidst the AI frenzy of 2023, major players like Google, Microsoft, and Meta are in the spotlight, launching their own generative AI systems.
Microsoft has made it easy for iPhone users to check their mobile updates on Windows-enabled computers.
You reading this Microsoft,... Learn From It.
Yup. I've never downloaded any apps from the Windows market. However, I love to use the metro start screen as an easy access page for my most used software.
Microsoft should've just stuck with their regular windows O.S. and then made a mobile platform, for phones and tablets. Trying to have apps for their main system was just dumb, considering the business world does not care for apps and does not need them. I will say though that I love the Netflix Windows 8 app lol. It is great.
We got Windows 8, Windows RT, Windows phone 8. We should've had Windows 8, and Windows mobile, with the ability to install regular windows 8 on x86 tablets for business users. The interfaces for both should've looked different also, just as the interfaces for OSX and IOS look different. Just to differentiate the two.
Who makes the decisions at Microsoft?
I never use them
Yep, Classic Shell is a must have for Win 8
