In a long post titled “Our commitment to Windows quality,” published on Microsoft’s website and sent via email to millions of members of the Windows Insider Program, Windows boss Pavan Davuluri laid out a laundry list of changes Microsoft plans to make in Windows 11, starting this month.
What’s most remarkable about this post is what it doesn’t contain. Here’s how Davuluri kicked things off:
Every day, we hear from the community about how you experience Windows. And over the past several months, the team and I have spent a great deal of time analyzing your feedback. What came through was the voice of people who care deeply about Windows and want it to be better.
That paragraph belongs in the non-apology Hall of Fame, with a cross-reference to “Friday news dump” – a classic PR technique that aims to minimize media coverage of the awkward news being released.
If you can find a mid range in that price range your living in bullshit land of nonsense and rainbow unicorn farts.
The ai bubble has ass fucked laptop pricing.
Even the second hand market is fucked.
Most 500-700 dollar laptops are the ewaste crap now. Anything below that price point is out of date Chromebooks at best.
I can’t agree that there are none, there are just few. If I was in the market for a midrange laptop at the moment I would probably go with this idea pad which should be good for the basics and should be able to do productivity tasks, albeit slowly: definetly not what I would call e-waste
