Ha! What an image - everyone walking around with giant goggles, swatting the air. Though I have to say, I'd be willing to look ridiculous if it meant giving the HoloLens a shot. That looks like a cool experience.

Good point. Being an early consumer may not be a good idea then. It would make sense to wait a couple of years when they have resolve most of the most annoying bugs. I friend of mind got a Samsung smartwatch...
In reply to: Re: apple watch battery life in question
Right, we're still seeing the growth of smartphones and experimenting with how much they're capable of. Until the smartphone starts to get "old" there's really no great need for a new accessory like the smartwatch. I appreciate...

Good to hear that you're having success with testing it out - and that it seems like Windows 10 is an improvement from Windows 8. The hybrid Start menu may be a bit much. Could be that they're trying to gain everyone's opinion...
In reply to: Re: Windows 10 Review
As someone who's also pretty excited about the new OS to come, I'm disappointed to learn about the problems that people are having with it. Perhaps it's less functional on Surface devices right now, so some people are having...

@nommii, I don't think it has to do with whatever version of Windows your upgrading from, since Windows 10 does a clean install (so you have to install all your software and settings from scratch) One thing I did like,...

@Sachinee, I suppose the Excel document suggestion is one way.

"Unlikely. It might be replaced with something like the hololenses or a full blown holodeck." @mak63: I think TVs might not have a natural death but will certainly envolve into a hybrid product. Just like you mentioned,...

@Sachinee, Absolutely! You also have to be careful when you write down your password and where you place the list. Your security can be breached that way as well.

I know we're getting a bit off of the deflategate subject but we're tracking along the management of high performers subject so I won't feel too bad about posting this. Yes there recently was a very public issue with...
In reply to: Re: People can reform
As far as wearables are concerned, I've definitely been on board with the idea that there are more and better use cases for enterprise than there are for consumers for a while. It just makes sense - with a high barrier to...
In reply to: Re: Augmented Reality Is For Real In The Enterprise
I am excited about all the new features and supposed improvements over W8. At this point on my Surface W10 was completely unusable. I could not even get the operating system stable enough to actually click on any program...
In reply to: Re: Windows 10 Nightmare
@David: you are very right on that, we have also seen the example of tablet launched by MS a decade ago and how apple learnt from that and introduced a specific OS designed for touch interface. Until now I didn't think MS...
In reply to: Re: Game changer
You are right Kelly and I don't think are at a stage where we can consider smart watch as a replacement of smartphone. Smartphone itself is in evolution phase and hasn't reached its maturity in terms of innovation. Once...

@PedroGonzales: smart watch is still at its initial phase so an average battery would solve the purpose but soon developers will jump in and start developing apps than not only the requirement of multitasking will arose...

Currently it is considered that glasses are ahead of their time but after few years if these glasses are re-launched they will be thought as the same old glasses and will be labeled as an already failed product. Halting...
In reply to: Re-launching
Well! I've spent a week on Windows 10..in my point of view, microsoft has a chance to make up for the major mistakes of Windows 8. But continuing to try and force users to adopt a hodge-podge of Windows 7 and 8 (as the hybrid...

@Technocrati: launching it ahead of time is of course a reason but I would also think that it cost around a thousand bucks more than the people would have been willing to pay right now. Revolution comes with the number,...

@mejiac: that is in interesting and promising feedback on new windows. From the news I have heard from the people around me who have used windows 10, I think they have similar experiences on crashing. I am not sure who same...

@PedroGonalzes: By looking at my last experience with Microsoft windows 8 release, I was an early user of it. That experience was quite harsh because of not a stable early release with an equally bothering new UI. I am sure...

Building a Mobile Business Mindset
The differences between mobile apps and conventional Windows clients, or even web applications, are far more than skin deep. Yes, the touch-versus-keyboard interface, APIs, and programming languages are new, but that’s arguably the easy part. There are profound differences in how the two are built, the functionality each prioritizes, the release cycles on which they’re developed — even the attitudes, values, and work styles of the developers creating them.
