The irony is that now microsoft has the same problem. It is incapable to get even a little percent on tablet marketshare and the phone marketshare, in which with nokia and the lumia it is pushing literally Billions of investments, the marke

Well that's a fault of apple, not of samsung. Infact there are chance that in the near future apple releases a cheap iphone version (but how much cheap considering that the iphone is one of the phone with the higher price on the market

Problem is, with such high fees they have discouraged the adoption of all the students/starters/tester around the world. Why corporation like microsoft are offering os, ides, tools and also devices free to develop to those categor

the problem is that Vala is strongly linked with only gtk making impossible to use it with others ui libraries.

For gtk at the moment the "main" language is becoming Vala, who is more... mh, trusted than mono and strongly more supported by all the gtk developers

As i see in the link above the support for xamarin is only in the business package so it starts at $999/year (please correct me if i am wrong). Anyway i was not talking about the support option, but about the chance of deploy a full se

More or less you get a 10% discount on the total price if you buy multiple licences at the same time You can see all here: https://store.xamarin.com/#purchase

Can it be related to the similar attack on the ubuntu forum? Maybe it was a single group of hackers targeting the servers in which they know a lot of developers have an account

I am a forum/news-site technology massive lurker and i can guarantee to you that win8 is much much more hated that vista was and for obvious reasons: w8 is a totally new interface proposition while vista was just an "upgrade"

You are right and i'm asking since years: are microsoft investors blind? Why they not make any pressure on the directors board to change the ceo? How much time they need again? Or are they trusting the "reorganize reorganize reorg

Pull out of mobile? Meanwhile the entire world is pushing mobile market making a lot bigger than the desktop pc market? Not a really good idea. It would be a suicide and they know it, that's why they are putting billions of money in wi

The problem is the long term run. At the moment they are really profitable, but with the switching of the market from pc-leadership to tablet-smartphone-smartdevices leadershipt they are in big risks.

by yulaow 13y ago
they have still enough gains in the professional market and also the cloud service (azure, office365, ...) but... yeah. They have failed totally in the tablet market atm having like 0% of the marketshare, they have a really tiny marketshare

I'm of the idea that microsoft auto-killed the surface rt in the exact moment in which they decided to release it at the same time of the surface pro. Maybe, if they had let pass something like 1 year or 18 months between the two (wit

and not only this. The worst part is the total failure of the presentation of the console. I know they now have deleted the big part of the main restrictions, but still they undermined the trust of the buyers.It is not a little problem

Oh, my bad in this case. So why there is not a linux version of xamarin studio? Or it is just because there is not a linux version of the plugins?
712.
by yulaow 13y ago
to be fair monodevelop and xamarin studio are not equal. The first is low supported and full of bug but free ( i think that is voluntary), the second is not free (at least not if you want to do something decent) and is the main focus of xam

So or Microsoft or Swoden and its data are lying. If i have to put a finger against one of them, i would choose microsoft.

The problem is that some of MS products have really nonsense license costs. I just say: MSQL server.

by yulaow 13y ago
yeah, that's the problem of mint. They don't support dist-upgrade so, when they release a new version, you are supposed to reinstall the full os or try yourself a dist-upgrade changing manually all the repos and being careful with

Ballmer is very good in one thing and it is: remove the main rivals from inside microsoft. He was doing this since years to try to put himself in a secure position with no alternatives for the Board of Directors. I think he will never step
