                    Microsoft and hardware... I give you the MS Surface... A great idea,... but poorly built... they suck - the drivers suck... and the reliability is crap (opinion from what I have supported / seen)

                      Manly smell. They should make that a deodorant.

                          It just reeks of "Apple is doing it this way let's copy them." Microsoft is in much better hands now that Ballmer isn't in the picture.

                            I recognize that every company has their failures... Look at IBMs PS2 - proprietary hardware, MS IE and Edge,... But this is more 'cake' than anyone wants.
