the weird thing imho is how the ps4 weighs like nothing compared to the xbone, and it has the psu built in where the xbone comes with a huge external brick. you'd think having the psu inside would make it heavier overall

how is the xbone so drat heavy compared

Win 8.1: good(?)

no point releases, unless they come out with a new windows 8 fixed up edition it doesnt fit my scale, windows 8 is just garbage they need to fix the problem

that's why i counted 98 and 98 SE separately, they fixed the problem. windows 8.1 doesnt fix the problem with the pile of poo poo.

still not counting incremental point releases read the post buddy

3.1/3.11 were bug fix point releases that added minimal anything, at the end of the day windows 3.anything still was vastly inferior to 95 when it came out, like blow your brains out behind when they were still trying to patch it up. "a pile of poo poo with chocolate chips in it" isn't good or ok it is bad.

im a mac + unix guy shut up im not saying windows is better but you gotta note the pattern

also not gaming the system. 98 SE really was good compared to 98s bad. windows 3.1 was not good compared ot the bad that was windows 3 entirely.

and windows 2000 doesnt count. no NT kernels / business releases - the entire comparison is home user windows and NT kernel only becomes involved when it's in a consumer release, XP

wait

they are looking at playbooks and drawing on top of them. that's it. it's a sketch pad and reference to playbooks. that's media loving consumption. consuming the media in the books, drawing red lines on it.

an ipad is ideal and a surface is forced and unnecessary and overcomplicated for the task

they are calling it an "ipad-like device" because it's "kinda like an ipad but not as good"
