My oldest laptop now sits on the hearth next to the big TV -- it's sole purpose in life now is to manually stream NCIS once a week from CBS.com as my wife will have her NCIS fix each week.

Why?   CBS stubbornly won't let Roku supply NCIS as a streaming service and CBS.com stupidly chooses web softwares that will only work well with MS products.  

(or, you could say they are Android adverse if you prefer).


================


And, after the next 2 years, MS products will not be the worldwide standard for anything unless they pull their thumbs out of their arses and support Android devices properly very very soon.

Study Blackberry a bit, MS.    They owned it all, then they became both NON-competitive and NON-cooperative.   Just recently their 4.7 billion dollar buy out to go private folded up totally and was "replaced" with an offer of one billion dollars as a conditional buy out (i.e. buying the existing intellectual property rights).    

Their CEO just got fired by the investors also (way too too late).

Blackberry is all done now but the funeral.


MS, if you go down the Blackberry path you too can become irrelevant and then non-existent.
