Earlier I saw something about Microsoft wanting to earn back lost trust and I actually literally laughed out loud about it.
Super easy to do though.
Extend support for Windows 10 for the foreseeable future.
Wall up Copilot. Make AI integrations optional with granular control for each app and data source.
Double the technical staff at Microsoft and create a large team with the specific job of paring down system resource usage. It's ridiculous that an operating system uses more resources at idle than Skyrim does.
Don't even talk about 12 yet. Even better, annouce that Windows 12 is scrapped in order to provide more resources to fix 11 and support 10.
And... A little extra fun. Sell half of the RAM Microsoft has stockpiled while the AI bubble is still intact.
Maybe they had CoPilot code them a time machine to go back to 2004.
I'd love them to all get in there first and let me know how it works out.
Absolutely wild that there was a time when Microsoft had three generally well regarded consumer products in Windows 7, the Xbox 360 and Windows Phone 7 all at the same time, compared to where they are now in all of those product spaces.
Windows was Windows, but 7 was largely consistent and didn’t need to be fought with like its successors.
The 360 was the go-to console for developers and gamers, despite the RROD issues, which I’d even give them credit for for handling (eventually) after lots of us got 2 free games and a free controller from them following the debacle.
Windows Phone 7 had a superb interface, great hardware and genuinely stood out.
Now they have nothing and are hated more than ever.
