      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

              Shirley, given their locale, it would be coffee-based beverages. Mobile versions could be "short", laptop versions could be "tall", desktop versions could be "grande", and server versions could be "venti". "Americano" would have IE pre-installed. "Kona" would be good for surfing.

              You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

                Windows 10 has the code name Etch-a-schetch. :)

                As I grow older I've found that pleasing everyone is impossible but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

                    I'm pretty sure I heard someone say that there isn't going to be a windows 9, so the point is moot.

                        Please don't joke about it (there were several Dilbert cartoons where Wally replaced the pointy haired bosses Tablet with an Etch-A-Sketch...)

                                  They better not release a Windows 10. Everyone knows Microsoft screws up even numbered OSs.

                                          Ah, the old "reverse Star Trek movie" rule. :rolleyes: That must mean that, after Windows 10, we can look forward to a shiny new version of DOS 1.0[^] (directed by J. J. Abrams), now with even more lens-flare[^].
