What's with Microsoft continuing to push failed products?
- Thread starter winb83
- Start date
I want a Windows Phone 8, I love Win 7 <3 and my mom has Win 8 on her asus laptop im still trying to get use to it but you really have to know the key shortcuts, I also notice that in Win 8 you cant do a network bridge I tried and it doesnt work

Change is inevitable...
If Windows 8 had that start menu the sales would go through the ROOF. But let the M$FT loyalists tell it and it's the peoples fault they're not copping it.
Stop trying to tell consumers what they want and instead, GIVE the consumer what they want.
This is what Apple does. And what's worse? Apple packages it in a way that makes their devices and products exude a kind of "better than you" type aura. That's Marketing 101. Give the customer something of perceived value and not only will they cop it but they'll defend it to the death.
That's what M$FT needs, some fresh blood, too many old cats in that company stuck in their ways and too many wannabe visionaries that have no clue what the consumer wants.

If cats haven't learned by now, you upgrade every other OS with MS
XP, Win 7
Vista, Win 8
Windows 8 actually isn't bad. I don't know that I'd pay for the upgrade from Win 7, but it's not a step down either.

Win8>>>>>>>>>>>>> windows 7
Once you invest so much money in a product it makes sense to continue to push it and least try make your money back.
that sums it up beautifully because all these failed products aren't ones in categories they created but are instead me too type products. they see someone have success in something and wanna copy that. even the Xbox is basically an attempt to copy and dethrone Sony. Windows was taken from Apple. honestly what have they actually innovated on? plug and play / USB?
Another example was the Zune
they just keep highlighting the fukking camera features
did apple copy the Diamond Rio?
I can't believe people that use PC's have the gall to be on some "they should have stuck to DOS shyt"
Exactly; it's fukking idiotic. If people want a camera with 42 megapixels or whatever, they'll drop the money on a top notch camera, not a damn phone.they just keep highlighting the fukking camera features

Diamond Rio?
it was one of the first portable mp3 players. and being the first, they were the ones that had to deal with getting sued by the RIAA. they won though, and then the doors were open for everyone to start making portable mp3 players
it was a Windows compatible device btw
