<ol>
<li>]&nbsp;leo not here today, mike elgan is guest host</li>
<li>] sounds like todays show will be a Q + A format</li>
<li>] slow news weak for msft news, only 3 stories</li>
<li>] talking about the sony store ? only affected windows computers</li>

<li>] has to reboot computer a couple of times a day</li>
<li>] msft announced a fix, Paul</li>
<li>] check to ensure that the update has installed&nbsp;, paul had problems installing</li>
<li>] pinged the guy from msft</li>
<li>] many people are having the same problem</li>
<li>] likely many</li>
</ol>
<li>[00:00] whats next for windows 10</li>
<ol>
<li>] after announcing the latest tech preview, there will be no more releases of that version this year</li>
<li>] although, a new build has been leaked 9888</li>
<li>] msft discouraging people from downloading it b/c it is less stable then the current unstable version</li>
<li>] changes in the version include, kernel version # changes, from 6.4 to 10.</li>
<li>] changes to some context menus,</li>
<li>] changes making explorer more stable</li>
<li>] nothing groundbreaking</li>
<li>] next version on Jan 20, will likely be a "consumer preview" version</li>
<li>] will be announced at a msft event</li>
<li>] also will be showing the windows 10 mobile version,</li>
<li>] dont know what it will be called</li>
<li>] may not get the bits at that time, msft needs more time to deliver</li>
<li>] also the next version of the windows server update</li>
<li>] will the mobile versions steal the show?</li>
<li>] more interesting events for windows phone and windows tablet users</li>
<li>] chromebook education market</li>
<li>] ...</li>
<li>] low end windows pcs from hp, dell, ... - &nbsp;</li>
<li>] a more natural productivity device - can print, can run full version of office,</li>
<li>] not with "surface" branded device,&nbsp;devices are too&nbsp;high end</li>
<li>] simpler is not always a positive, especially when you are given up functionality</li>
<li>]</li>
<li>ME] sony pictures employess using pen and paper after being hacked 8 days ago</li>
<li>] many documents were stolen including confidential employee records and</li>
<li>] Fury and Annie are very popular on bittorrent</li>
<li>] employees being issued new computers,</li>
<li>] some incredbile form of malware, ??, fbi has stepped in, homeland security has stepped in, warning companies about it</li>
<li>] what can msft do to solve the problem of everyone getting hacked? </li>
<li>] doing a lot of things with windows 10, under the hood on security, having really</li>
<li>] dont think we will go back to palladium and inkstrum</li>
<li>] new app model has new security features</li>
<li>] PC is a legacy platform, heaping mound of stuff, that keeps getting added on too</li>
<li>] part of the reason to</li>
<li>] change is hard when your user base resists, you cant just issue an edict, example - windows XP</li>
<li>] double edged sword, complexity VS capability</li>
</ol>
<li>[00:00] windows phone</li>
<ol>
<li>] will the win phone platform win&nbsp;mindshare or will it bounce around on the periphery?</li>
<li>] msft focusing on low end of the&nbsp; market, $600 iphone VS $99 phone</li>
<li>] going after the next billion or so users, who dont have a phone</li>
<li>] decisions will be made on very different criteria</li>
<li>] as windows phone gets ignored, over time the differentiating features of the windows phone&nbsp;</li>
<li>] reminds me of being an amiga fan in the late 80's or 90's</li>
<li>"MJF] saw many more windows phones in EU</li>
<li>] msft needs to make at least 1 flagship phone,</li>
