So many rippable quotes in this article. Here are just a few of my favorites: "If you were expecting Windows Phone 8′s app ecosystem to be one of its main selling points, think again." Windows app ecosystem has never been one of its strongest setlling points. At no time has its app store even come close to competing with Apple or Android. Its main selling point is the integration with its existing platform. Bing maps, Skydrive, Outlook, etc. I have no idea why this guy thought it should be a major selling point now. "A multitude of pundits have weighed in, and the consensus from them is that Microsoft might just be buying time because the platform isn’t quite done yet." After Apple completely bungled their recent release, I would've thought there was going to be some praise following this paragraph. The funny thing is, I'm wondering if this guy even reads the articles on his own site. Just last week this article was on their front page: "Microsoft promises major Windows 8 app improvements before Oct 26 launch" http://www.extremetech.com/computing/137469-microsoft-promises-major-windows-8-app-improvements-before-oct-26-launch http://www.extremetech.com/computing/137469-microsoft-promis... "Microsoft is letting marketing dictate the deployment of software instead of what’s really best for the product" FALSE. I would instead give them credit for seeing the failures of Apple's release and the backlash which ensued. Can you fault them for making sure their product is ready when it hits the stores? "Almost any other company on the planet would have washed its hands of Windows Phone after a second unsuccessful holiday season." Yes, because supporting a handset manufacturer who just lost a multi-billion dollar patent infringement case is so much safer right? There's more, but these are the ones that stuck out at me.
