    Windows 9 Rumored to be in Alpha Stage

    Seems to be the plan, from everything I've seen they are doubling down on all the stupid things nobody wants. I want a desktop OS that is debloated, fast, and has better media center and media converting abilities than 7, I could watch Cortana, Metro, their app store, mobile, and everything else...

    Diablo III Anniversary Buff Stays; WoW Faction Change Free

    Easy when only 50 people play the game anymore. Their new xpac reached what, less than a quarter of people who bought the original? Faction changes, what good is that going to do me on their server mashup that made timeless isle a crowded mess with 10x as many players as mobs?

    eBay Users: Change Your Passwords

    It has to have the key on the server to read anything encrypted, if it is just comparing HASHES that is a completely different thing.

    Microsoft Fall Update May Be Windows 8.2

    Jesus Tom's fix your damn comment system... Windows 9 more of the same crap that made nobody want Windows 8. Corporate America is going to flock to anybody besides Microsoft who can provide them a basic secure desktop OS in the next 5 years.

    Microsoft Reaffirms Desktop is the Core of Windows

    Metro is just what the ugly interface was called, the real travesty here is the insistence by Microsoft to ram metro and all importantly for them, the stupid app store nobody wants along with it. All I and 95% of desktop users want is a stable, secure, fast desktop OS that handles desktop...

    Microsoft Offering Windows XP Users Money Off to Upgrade

    Funny enough there is an article on yahoo that applies here - the 3% of all computer users who don't mind windows 8 don't speak for the rest of us. The argument isn't that XP shouldn't ever get updated, it is that Windows 7 is pretty much the only real option and still overpriced. And the...

    Microsoft Offering Windows XP Users Money Off to Upgrade

    Duh Microsoft, nobody WANTS windows 8 for ANY price - even if you were giving it away free 95% of people on XP would stay with the better OS, XP. Intentionally making it obsoletely won't change the bald fact that Windows 8 sucks and nobody wants to put it on their machine.

    Reaper of Souls Adventure Mode is Primary Feature

    He did 8 major patches, that 90% of the purchasers never saw. He is still sticking with always on requirements on what is basically a single player game - for no good reason besides crippling the game. Raper of souls is not worth 2 cents, and he should get slapped for even considering making...

    Windows 9 Expected To Push Consumers Off Windows XP

    Yes, Windows 8 really IS that bad, I didn't spend $5000 on a high end desktop so it can look like a phone. Windows 7 shouldn't still cost $100 or more if it wasn't selling 5x as fast as Windows 8 to this day.

    Diablo III Reaper of Souls Fan Art Contest for Blizzard Visit

    Does a betrayed fan crying and stomping on a copy of Diablo 3 Office Space style stand a chance of winning? Somehow I think the corporate crybabies at blizzard wouldn't give it the props it truly deserves since it accurately reflects how most of us feel about their D- game.

    Linux is free and way better than windows 8.
