Let’s hope it’s actually true.

    That’s what they said a month ago, then they decided that ‘remove copilot from notepad’ meant ‘rename copilot in notepad’.

      I remember reading that plan and being shocked about how good it sounded. And then they did the exact opposite of every single thing they promised, which I’m sure endeared themselves to all their enterprise customers.

      So sure, I welcome Microsoft’s attempts to finally drag itself back into relevancy, but they’ve got a massive self-inflicted foot wound that’s gonna complicate matters.

        “drag itself back into relevancy”

        They still have some like a little more than 90% market share. That seems pretty relevant to me.

        Well, when Microsoft finally admits they’re wrong they usually backtrack well enough. Think windows 8/8.1

        It was still an ugly pig with lipstick but the worst parts like the start screen were gone.

          Oh noooooo 8 was much more than lipstick. No, that was a giant inflatable space pig rushed out the door with the body of a moose and Constructed of fine mesh.

          Fascinating to watch the car crash though.

          That was a different time when they were getting the smackdown from Janet Reno.
