They are sadly mistaken. Microsoft is slowly fading away to irrelevance. In fact, the age of Nandella is coming to an end I’ve said it before. “Microsoft does not know how to compete when the playing field is level” and the same applies to their evil twin Intel.
Don’t let them, just move on. The days are pretty much over in terms of using Microsoft Word at a personal level away from the office why? It doesn’t add anything special, the only program worth using is Excel. And even that is slowly fading away. Adobe and Quark are also declining too.
So all the experienced people already in the software field can’t use these models to go even further in their designs? I find that hard to believe in short, i think the bar to entry is just gonna go to a higher level.
Some of the people in the tech crowd may feel that way. In regular person land it’s very hard to beat Apple. A company that designs the OS and the hardware together as one wins out and if it was easy, more companies would have done it over the years.
It certainly is taking a whole bunch of people a lot of time to produce something better and I’m sorry, Windows and Microsoft aren’t it in the mid 80s in the early 90s there were many in some cases, better solutions by several vertical computer companies not saying all of them were better, but you can’t beat designing the operating system and the hardware under one roof again parasitically hanging off someone else’s hardware equals a bad, poorly performing solution.
And many would say Microsoft Windows, Android and Linux are well, not that good, someone who remembers all those other vertical computer companies from the 1980s to early 1990s who had a OS to go with in-house hardware and I’m afraid that’s where Apple has the others beat the integration of the two is where it’s at, parasitically hanging off someone else’s hardware, is not going get the job done not against Apple. or anyone else that chooses to go down the same path, and I don’t mean parasitically hanging off someone else’s hardware.
In comparison to who?, because the competition is lagging see the new Surface laptop by Microsoft/Nvidia which is the second or third effort by Microsoft? the previous version with Qualcomm has been a failure, Apple currently has five ecosystems to go with Apple Silicon who is this other company out there that can say the same, is the operating system perfect no is anything in the tech world? It’s iteration over time and never stopping or else you get to join Motorola of Schaumburg, Illinois, or take a backseat like IBM, or Intel.
I wish someone would take out a license with Arm and build a computer using Linux creating a user-friendly computer. After all, it’s been 35 years.
I would say it’s the combination of iOS, MacOS, and the other three Apple OSs (ecosystems) and Apple Silicon is what puts Apple ahead of Microsoft, AMD, Intel, Nvidia and Google.
They are just wasting time, a better use of their time. Would be taking a license out from Arm for designing processors and building something from the ground up like those three former engineers who worked at Apple who later got paid $1.2 billion for their work by Qualcomm when their company Nuvia was bought out.
Prosecute and show no mercy, the current Iran war probably will still be going on when the new administration comes in. The only hope for Mr. Kushner and some of the other people is a rapid peace treaty before the end of this mixed-up administration even that probably will not help.
