An Open Letter to Microsoft

You have the most interesting marketing it has been my experience to deal with. You get a stable OS (XP) and you stop supporting in favor of a highly buggy and unreliable Windows 8.1. Meanwhile, you are working on Windows 10 (what happened to 9?) it works OK until your computer refuses to boot and you have to go back to factory settings losing all your downloads and apps.

The most interesting part of this is you introduce OneDrive. So at least I didn't lose all of my documents. Now your marketing department has decided to cut the OneDrive in half while Google Drive, Dropbox, Box are all adding space.

And you sit there and scratch your heads ..
"Gee Whillikers why are people totally angry at Microsoft?"
"Why aren't people replacing their stable Windows 7?"

I think the real question is: Why does anybody at Microsoft still have a job?

Oh yeah .. I wrote this blog using the new featureless Microsoft Edge .. and Blogger gave me the message: The browser we detected is unsupported and may result in unexpected behavior.

Thanks again Microsoft for another lousy computer experience.
