  Microsoft doesn't think Windows is important anymore. “The operating system is no longer the most important layer for us,” said @satyanadella. Microsoft is now willing to work with Google on its apps and services. My thoughts on Microsoft's historic day: https://www.theverge.com/…

  Today we shared where Surface and Microsoft are...and where we're going. I hope you liked the products. We can't wait to see what you do with them #MicrosoftEvent #SurfacePro7 #SurfaceLaptop3 #SurfaceEarbuds #SurfaceNeo #SurfaceDuo pic.twitter.com/UIoW8SDPNN

  I'm sorry, but this is called “vaporware.” A device with indeterminate specs, a release date a year away, and only company employees can use it? Kind of insane the way it's being covered as if it's real. Also no offense but these bezels are disgusting. https://www.theverge.com/..…

  This is really cool. Touch screens were terrible until pinch to zoom in/out and inertial scrolling worked. We're going to have the pinch-to-zoom moment for foldable phones soon enough. And I have no idea what it looks like, and that is awesome. https://twitter.com/...

  Now all this needs is for someone to go back and develop Microsoft's original Courier software concept and we've arrived https://www.theverge.com/...

  I don't see the value but it could be interesting if: 1. make it 3.5-4inch screens 2. Make the screens thinner 3. Reskin android better (bring back zune-like metro) 4. Stabilize the way the VM is handled, apps crash too easily in android https://www.theverge.com/...

  😍 The perfect xCloud device? https://twitter.com/...

  I was able to slip it into my jeans pocket, and it's definitely the first pocketable Surface device. It looks and feels like a miniature tablet that's also a phone https://twitter.com/...

  Exactly. To think Apple or Samsung couldn't put two LCD or OLED screens connected by a hinge is hilarious. https://twitter.com/...

  These aren't foldable devices. Microsoft made a hinge. 😂 Do you want big hinge? Or smol hinge? 🥴 pic.twitter.com/zsNTBKGoT8

  foldable phone is horrific and disgusting and if you think i'm gonna buy this when apple steals this idea for iPhone 15 you're absolutely right https://twitter.com/...

  Microsoft is back in the phone game. This is the Surface Duo. It folds, fits in your pocket, and makes phone calls. Even though Microsoft refuses to call it a phone, there is no doubt it is one—and it's a big deal for the company: https://www.wired.com/... https://twitter.com/...

  When I asked Satya Nadella whether Microsoft ever thought about reviving a true Windows mobile OS, he told me: “The operating system is no longer the most important layer for us...What is most important for us is the app model and the experience.” https://www.wired.com/...

  Be everywhere, no walls. Intel, Qualcomm, AMD, phone, tablets, holographic, VR, laptops, 2in1s, desktop, Android, Linux WSL, Windows, iOS, iPad OS, gaming, Xbox, cloud, AI. It's about services, software, dev, and leading in hardware. Microsoft is platform agnostic. https://twitte…
