The statistics for April reveal that, at long last, Windows 7 is no longer installed on the majority of computers, slipping to a 48.79 percent market share. Windows 10 saw slight growth to 14.35 percent (up from 14.15 percent), and Windows XP dropped below 9.66 percent.

In an illuminating Twitter conversation, Apple's Phil Schiller says you should never pluralize Apple product names. So, it should be WePhone? IsePhone? (For our friends in Newfoundland. And Labrador.)

But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

That's exactly why Satya was told to "buy milk" when he was asking about his "most at risk opportunities".
These "big guys" do have "big words", but they lack "big tricks". In case someone doesn't get the paragraph I posted above: Satya Nadella Cortana Demo Epic Failure (Funny Video) - YouTube[^]

If you go to QA, you will see that this has already happened.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
