Believe it or not, but Microsoft doesn't have the best reputation, due to their bleeding edge approach towards technology...
Microsoft "PAVED" the way for companies like Google, Linux, Apple, Samsung, ASUS etc. etc. etc., but the media continually killed them...
Microsoft has always been horrible at marketing themselves, they relied on others to do that for them, but if you've lived long enough you'll know that you really can't rely on others...
They say that any press is good press, whether it be bad or good doesn't matter, because it's the exposure you're after, but "exposure" is the key element in Microsoft's failure...
See, Microsoft was at the butt end of all jokes about Data Exposure, and other people's data was exposed which made it personal for others and that's when the exception to the rule of, any press is bad press...
The thing of it is, Apple exposed more data in One year than Microsoft had done in it's entire existence up until 2000, but the media didn't report Apple, just Microsoft...
The other problem is nobody really knows who Microsoft is and what they do, because companies like HP, Intel, ASUS, ACER and any company that provided their software were the only ones that were known...
A lot of people don't even know what operating system they have on their computers or devices for the most part, just that it's an HP or the like, nothing about Microsoft...
An example of this is Samsung's Galaxy phone, women don't know don't care who makes the phone, they just know it by Galaxy due to Samsung's gift of marketing and phone reliability...
Samsung phones are second to none in the industry and have the best reputation for reliability and features like waterproof phones...
Women have to be protected from themselves because everyone by now has seen the video of the woman walking into the fountain while looking at her phone while walking...
The woman was embarrassed to say the least, but adding insult to injury by not having a waterproof phone is key in Samsung's approach to technology...
Women don't care about security as much as men do and why should they, men are always there to open the door for them, stand up for them and Samsung has now laid the proverbial jacket across the water puddle for them with the waterproof phone...
example: Stacey Konwiser Zookeeper mauled to death by tiger broke zoo rules...
Plus the Apple phone with it's finger print scanner is getting bad press due to the mechanics and the grease they get on their hands...
Mechanics that work on engines get grease on their hands and when they try to use the finger print scanner they can't, because their fingers are all greasy, which is frustrating for a person and women hear that...
Women don't know or care about what operating system is on the phone, they just like the attention that Samsung is getting for their devices and they hear that...
However, remember that Women's pockets are smaller than Men's pockets, so the iPhone is still more appealing than the Galaxy because it doesn't stick out as much ;-)
Google with their eagerness to get market share from app developers have exposed their phone to more threats than any phone on the market, but again, WOMEN DON'T CARE, they just want what's trendy...
Plus Samsung doesn't have all the drama that Apple and Microsoft have hanging over their head because they know how to build a product and they have many of them...
Why Microsoft hasn't partnered up with Samsung for their phones is another failure of Microsoft's and regardless of Microsoft requiring proprietary hardware for their software is a moot point right now because Windows 10 doesn't require it just yet...
IT'S BETA TIME SATYA!
Satya Nadella is a left brained thinker that has his head stuck in the clouds and calls himself a CEO, but doesn't have the ability to see past his server room...
The cloud is just a server that stores your data remotely, which is good, but more of a glorified backup solution with a limited revenue stream...
They're putting so much money into their Azure product, but will never recover the value out of all the money and resources they are putting into it because they're not the first person to do it...
There are thousands of companies out there that offer cloud storage and they offer it with more data storage and for free and unfortunately that's all people are motivated by...
People have locks on their houses, they have alarms to protect their property, they have people watch their homes when they are away and we have a police force that protects them as well, but with data, they just willy nilly give it to the lowest bidder without giving it a second thought...
Most people have no idea what a cloud service is and what it does, but they don't care until they need it and that might never happen, and if it does, will you be able to retrieve it, will anyone be able to retrieve it, will anybody be there to retrieve it from...
After reading about and using Windows 10 we see that it's not that big of an advancement in technology for Microsoft, it's more of a cross platform Desktop than a marvel in technology...
It's still built on x86 technology which dates back to the 70's and their CPU partner Intel can't seem to compete with Qualcomm and are now laying off employees due to lost revenue...
We wanted Meg Whitman to succeed, but HPE stock is flatlining right now and we knew it would because all HP does is resell other people's product, they're a glorified reseller with a Woman from Harvard that has no right being in the Technology world because she has no vision for it...
It's a Portable world now and Microsoft just doesn't get it and are trying to chain you to your desk again and hoping and praying on lightning striking twice for them, but it's not going too...
All Apple has to do is improve upon their Enterprise which they are doing right now and add touchscreen technology to their Macintosh software and that's it...
More women are getting into the business world, and women like Apple more than they do Microsoft, because more women own iPhone's than windows phones, because Microsoft only has two phones to choose from and Apple :-D a million of them...
Microsoft also gave Apple a leg up by giving them Microsoft Office, so now Apple is business ready and while Satya has his head in the clouds Apple is going to fly under the radar and soon enough will pop up on their screen and Microsoft will say, where did they come from...
Women are more artistic and more organized than most men and Apple is very organized and is designed for the artistic person, so what did you think Microsoft, did you think Apple was just gonna roll over and die...
clarification: Men and Women are not better or worse than one another they're just different and because of that difference are we able to compliment one another...
Apple blows Microsoft away when it comes to marketing and their product sells itself, all you have to do is set it on a table and people will start bidding instantly for it, but Microsoft products are confusing because they think it's either a cheap ass Dell or an Expensive ass Gaming machine and they don't want either one...
The gaming market is a Billion dollar industry, but they're only 10% of the market, the rest are business minded people that play in a Muti-Trillion Dollar Corporate industry and growing everyday...
Now Microsoft is dumping Xbox 360 which was their most popular gaming device because it rewarded people for playing it, but now Xbox One is just another box that has a dollar bill slot on it in order to play it...
Apple owns the Music industry, portable industry, graphics design and movie industry and the gaming industry...
It just makes more sense to go Apple then it would Microsoft for the future and as sad as it is for us to say that, it's a fact!
**UPDATE**
Microsoft lost nearly $30 billion in market value Friday after a shortfall in revenues...
Have you ever been so close to the problem that you just can't see the solution...well that is exactly where Microsoft is at right now...
You've gotta be outside looking in sometimes in order to fix what you can't see what's right in front of your face...and that's a fact!
**UPDATE**
Carl Icahn pulls out all his shares in Apple due to a drop in their quarterly earnings...so!
We told you last year that we saw a decline in Phone sales with Apple, but it's not just Apple, it's everyone...
The Market is flooded with Cell Phones and sure it was fun for awhile to stay up with the Kardashians (Jones Evolved) purchasing envy, but like all devices, they come into their own and people are now starting to love their device again...
Carl Icahn is a bottom feeder, a drum fish if you will that aggregates the market with his rhetoric and creates controversy so he can buy low and sell high, he's an investor and that's what investors do, they feed off of misery, the Gordon Gecko of the Underworld type...
He doesn't create, he destroys and knows nothing of employee pride and Apple is all about pride, from it's employees and their followers...
Carl is still upset that Michael Dell and Silver Lake refused to kneel to him and take the company Public...
The time that we are in with computers is reflection and software integration, a calm before the storm if you will...
Microsoft and Apple are what companies looks like at Maturity and are long term Stocks now, so if it's a rush you're looking for, take a look at the startups for the fast grab cash getaways...
Google hasn't even hit puberty yet, but they'll offer you that rush you're looking for and/or a possible STD...
Do you know the difference between the 1% and the 99%...the 1% don't have anyone they can turn to...and that's a fact!
**UPDATE**
Like we were saying...
It is, however, good news for Apple, considering that the company now has a very large platform for iOS, with clear optimization for iPhone and iPad hardware. That has resulted in enthusiastic Enterprise adoption. In its last earnings call, Apple noted that "the latest data published by IDC indicates that iPad accounts for 72% of the U.S. commercial tablet market, comprising business, government, and education."
