Well if you’re like me you bought 3 of them simply because they first two kept dying.

Why, are you retarded? They extended all warranties an additional 3 years when the RROD issue started happening. I had my Xbox replaced three times, all for free. Maybe you don’t know how to pick up the phone and call customer support, but that’s on you, not Microsoft.

Even the 2nd gen Zune was pretty rad. If that had been the first-gen Zune, things would have gone differently.

Even still, I loved my Zune 30. It might have been a fat motherfucker, but it was attractive nonetheless, worked great, and had way more features than the iPod.

Pretty sure that for video AND music it’s the second biggest online marketplace in the world, yeah.

Sadly, it doesn’t work for earlier Zunes. My cousin got all excited, and then got his hopes dashed when he plugged in his Zune 80 and it didn’t recognize it.

It’s exactly like zune: constantly behind on features and content.

That’s weird, I could have sworn you were talking about the iPod and iPhone. And then when they finally DO get a feature that others have had for years, it’s some amazing new thing they invented.

Usability wise it’s not bad, but it’s much slower than it should be.

It absolutely flies on my SIX-YEAR-OLD computer. You’re…wrong.

Dual-booting between the two is great on my laptop.

The multitouch trackpad on my Dell XPS 15 is pretty dang usable on Windows 7 AND 8. I like it a lot.

I’ll answer your really stupid question, Windows has no limit to resolution at all.

I fucking love you.

This is one of the best gifs of all time. Bite your fucking tongue.

My Dell XPS 15 has all those keys, right next to each other.

No, you’re confusing megabytes with megaBITS. Look at your speed again: 4Mb/s.

They were late with Windows(Apple arrived earlier), they were late with Office(Word Perfect arrived earlier), they were late with Xbox(Sony Nintendo and Sega arrived earlier)…

Just look at rest of their products, same story.

Microsoft is always late. But catches up.

This is a good point. They were late to market with all those products, but ALL the MS products you just listed are better tha nthe competition.

>The only thing holding me back is my unlimited plan, which I’m not sure I’d want to give up just yet.

How much data do you really use a month? I have 5GB on T-Mobile and I haven’t come close yet. And that’s for a plan that’s HALF the price of Verizon.

You ar ewrong.

To clarify, I’m paying for two people what I’d pay for one person on Verizon.

T-Mobile has huge discounts for bringing your own phone, or purchasing your device outright from them instead of the subsidized price.

You can’t buy an unlocked phone to use on Verizon or Sprint.

>affordability is still an issue for outright purchase.

Not on T-Mobile. You save hundreds over the life of a contract bringing your own device.

They were mostly nicked from Windows Phone.

The Razr Maxx is so amazingly thin and still packs such a huge battery because AMOLED screens are unbelievably thin. Look up a picture of the Razr display taken out of the phone—it’s thinner than a credit card, INCLUDING the digitizer.

The One X uses an S-LCD so the display itself is required to be thicker. That said, if they made a One X-lookin’ phone but with a smaller screen—say, 4-4.3" and a huge battery, they could probably keep it under 11mm thin. And I’d buy that phone. My HTC Radar is 3.8" and 10.9mm thin and feels thin as HELL to me.

>(although they now require a 2-year agreement so it’s almost identical to the others).

Except the plans are like, half the price.

Look, everyone, someone who doesn’t know at all how the Start Menu has worked since Windows Vista!

IIRC, you can’t animate windows all nice-style when you disable Aero Glass. Which sucks, because non-animated minimize/maximize effects don’t look as quality.

In Metro.

I haven’t tried to select multiple things in like, an Explorer window. You can always just click and drag a select box around them, though.

Gently pull down on items. At least, that’s how it works on the start screen.
