Microsoft has apparently finally admitted that Windows 8's dueling tablet-PC interface was a mistake, because reports say that in the upcoming 8.1 update Windows will bypass the Start screen and boot straight to the desktop. "The complaining customer represents a huge opportunity for more business."

That new update still will not save it.
There will still be a navigation problem that the new UI introduced.

Seems it up:
There is a solution, and it's a simple one: Follow Apple's lead and design one OS for traditional computers and another one for tablets. But there's no sign Microsoft is willing to do that with Windows 8. If we're lucky, maybe it will happen with Windows 9 or beyond.

With the release of Windows 8.1 to the world in October, January was the third full month of availability for Microsoft’s latest operating system version, which was just enough time for it to pass Windows Vista in market share. Linux is at 1.6%! It's truly the "Year of Linux" this time

The real question is of those new sales that were created for Christmas, How many were returned ?
I know we returned 1 in my house.
And HP is offering some Windows 7 units again.
Not a system I would want though.
|
|
|
|
|
That's a good point: I don't think I've ever seen reports on returns. Except - of course - on major recalls.
Windows 7 is definitely going to be around for a while though.

For at least the past five years I have read countless articles not just deriding the value of the so-called skill, but citing experts that flat out deny that there is such a competency in the first place, and pointing to evidence that those who engage in the behaviour are seriously harming their cognitive performance. It certainly is possible, and I'll prove it - just after I answer my phone

It is certainly possible to perform multiple tasks at once provided the tasks have periods when they don't require your active participation.

IDC has published the “2014 Worldwide Software Developer and ICT-Skilled Worker Estimates” document, a study estimating the number of professional software developers, hobbyist developers and Information and Communications Technology (ICT)-skilled workers in the world at the start of 2014. The 90 countries covered in the study represent 97% of the world’s GDP. All right, everybody: count off

I think it fits here, but it could also have gone in the Lounge too.
If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

In Tegmark's view, everything in the universe — humans included — is part of a mathematical structure. All matter is made up of particles, which have properties such as charge and spin, but these properties are purely mathematical, he says. And space itself has properties such as dimensions, but is still ultimately a mathematical structure. Time for someone to integrate himself into a padded collection

I think he's made the fundamental error of confusing the map with the territory.
The reason mathematics models the universe so well is simply because we designed mathematics to be useful modelling the universe, through a succession of refinements.

The cosmos is made of thought.
"I had always considered thought to be an electrochemical process that goes on in the brain. Therefore a thought would be comprised of matter, and energy. But if we can alter an experiment by thinking about it, which is another way of saying we can alter reality with a thought, then can we truly consider thoughts as being simply matter and energy? Couldn't we actually elevate thought to the same status as matter and energy?" -- The Spires of Tarkus by Dave McWhorter[^]

Please take a moment to consider if you actually need jQuery as a dependency. Maybe you can include a few lines of utility code, and forgo the requirement. If you're only targeting more modern browsers, you might not need anything more than what the browser ships with. "All you need is love"
