Windows Tech Preview: a pregame guide to Microsoft's big event - Polidicks

[url]http://www.infoworld.com/article/2688799/microsoft-windows/guide-to-windows-tech-preview-launch.html[/url] [quote=Woody Leonhard/InfoWorld]Tens, probably hundreds of thousands of people will prepare to fix their eyeballs on tea leaves as Microsoft launches its first "discussion" about where Windows is headed on Sept. 30. Very little about the event has been publicized. If you plan to follow along -- Microsoft has declared there will be no livecast -- here's what you need to know and what to watch for. Allow me to note that InfoWorld, apparently due to our frequently voiced negative opinion of Windows 8 -- and our detailed Windows Red proposal on how to fix it -- was expressly not invited to this event, even though it will take place mere few blocks from our offices in San Francisco.[/quote]

no livecast, that's a shame

EDIT: came back to see dumbs left by Windows 8 users, lol.

[QUOTE=TheNewDude;46112021]Wah wah wah someone insulted my Microsoft, better get Microsoft's cock out and suck it.[/QUOTE] Windows 8 is objectively better than Windows 7 when it comes to features. Wah wah wah muh start menu See, I can pull that shit too.

[QUOTE=Bazsil;46112133]not sure why this post is getting dumbed so much when it's right on the money, microsoft is in the wrong for specifically shunting people who disapprove of them instead of trying to win them over[/QUOTE] Well it says that the event is extremely exclusive and many of the larger outlets aren't attending and they attend everything. I've never heard of this website before.

[QUOTE=Bazsil;46112133]not sure why this post is getting dumbed so much when it's right on the money, microsoft is in the wrong for specifically shunting people who disapprove of them instead of trying to win them over[/QUOTE] Or perhaps Microsoft just did not consider InfoWorld important enough to invite.

[QUOTE=Korova;46112167]Well it says that the event is extremely exclusive and many of the larger outlets aren't attending and they attend everything.

Wah wah wah muh start menu See, I can pull that shit too.[/QUOTE] that plus if you want a start menu back just right click taskbar and go into toolbars, hit "desktop" checkmark bam its pretty much the same thing

[QUOTE=Bazsil;46112190]Maybe, just the whole "expressly" just made it sound like it was specific targeting them instead of "who are these guys and why should we care" It might be worded that way on purpose though, yeah[/QUOTE] Exactly. I find it extremely difficult to believe that Microsoft has some sort of vendetta against infoworld.com :v:
