So what is Apple's plan? I don't really see any plan in your video. You give a nice overview about the history of Microsoft and it's failures in the past (as if Apple never had any failures). Software is more and more cloud based, and also more and more web based. Microsoft knows this and therefore heavily invested in Azure. THAT is Microsoft's main product now. They even aren't charging money for upgrades to windows anymore. Office is slowly also more and more web based and will eventually be completely replaced by web apps. These apps can run on Windows, MacOS, Linux, Android etc etc. So it is natural that windows will have a smaller marketshare. Yes one of the problems with Microsoft is that they have to support all the hardware availalbe where Apple can do exactly what they want. On the other hand, there are less and less players in the market so it will be easier for Microsoft to liaise with those players to create better standards. X86 will not be replaced fully by ARM (yet). The reason is that ARM will never be as powerfull as X86 processors because of their limited instruction set (given that X86 will continued to be develloped). ARM however is getting better and now is perfectly viable for laptops and doing day to day tasks that are not that compute intensive. Since they run much longer on a battery charge, for an office environment X86 will be dead in the near future. For specific cases X86 will however continue to be the better choice, and for that, for now at least, there will be windows x86. I think that in the future we might see solutions where ARM or RISC V will be the default for daily use, and then a much faster and bigger FPGA like chip will be programmed on the fly for specific tasks to be performed as soon as a program is loaded.

Honestly, Microsoft needs to RESPECT the user again. They need to do 1 thing: 1. Opt users out of EVERYTHING by default 2. NEVER send any user data to MS, or enable features that would do so without their consent 3. Remove ALL nags, hurdles, ads, sponsored apps, etc from windows 4. Give CLEAR choices to users during setup, and then HONOR those for every update and feature moving forward. The operating systems needs to be very efficient, protect the user, and merely give the user "options" if they want, and NEVER re-ask for a feature a user had a chance to, or never opted into. People ONLY user windows because of games support, or enterprise AD. THATS IT.

[@josvah]

What exactly gives you the illusion that Apple could never adapt to providing those services if the opportunity arose? MS won’t dominate forever, especially as corporations and the public begin to notice more and more just how unstable and inelegant they are. Apple can easily afford to develop UIs & servers for ATMs, Billboards, POS systems, etc. Once developed, all they need is to price enterprise services competitively and they would take half the market within a year. They already have the reputation of creating stable systems. Just because they chose to focus on B2C as their strategy now is no limitation imposed upon them.

[@judewestburner]

@@josvah You know Rolls Royce could make budget cars for everyone, but notice that hasn't happened... coz it's not a market they care about. Apple could make inroads but there's SO many things in their DNA stopping that... like stable long-term support for ancient code, running on an insane set of hardware configurations to name a couple - the cost is high and the returns are low. And to make it worse, you now have 30+ years of coding legacy for all those applications that run on Windows written in VB6 / C++ to modern-day electron stuff. You say 'once developed' like it's nothing - you know some of these applications written over a 30 year period with millions of $'s of investment by companies that don't have infinite money like FAANG, are not just suddenly gonna start again for Macs out of some sort of righteous effort, especially when you know how indifferent and hostile Apple treats those that develop for its platform.

The channel file was the issue, not the signed driver.

This argument is a joke. This is a company that handicaps its products by refusing to make the base RAM in their machines (8GB) anywhere close to the competition’s standard (16GB) and to charge an exorbitant price, well beyond the cost of this upgrade, in order to include it in the product. Moreover, to disable the extra RAM (i.e., disabling 4GB in the 12GB in the M4) just to bring it down to 8G so they can charge more for the upgrade to 16GB. A company’s whose products that are marketed this way can’t possibly become the prevalent computing standard.

This is true. I was able to get Windows Server 2022 running on an older Surface Laptop. It's been my best laptop ever. The battery is legitimately competitive with my MacBook Pro M1. And the MacBook has been slowly down dramatically when trying to use finder. The touchscreen is great on the Surface Laptop. If the larger iPad Pro ran MacOS with and optional tablet reskin when in portrait orientation I would sell all my other equipment and buy it immediately. Instead I am moving back to Windows (server) and android.

I hope that at least in business sector, Linux picks up the slack that Windows nor Macs can't: billboards, point of sale, oftentimes even office computers. It can be anything Windows can, without the premium cost (and user experience) of Macs.

The Shift has already begun, MacOS is next logical choice followed by Linux , New Surface Laptop 7 could be my last Windows OS machine, why was Microsoft thinking allow a third party to interact with the Kernel , back in my college year this was drummed into our heads on NT 4 and Windows 2000 server that Kernel should never ever be messed with.

I dumped Windows 2005 and had enough of Word and constant crashing. Went to Mac. The win is a) the intuitive interface and b)the less talked about but more important feature, the 'advanced button'. A simple design signpost that says everything you see is 99% what you need. You can just press the advanced at your own risk. In design, we call it 'Progressive Disclosure' ref; a strategy for managing information complexity in which only necessary or requested information is displayed at any given time. (ref; 'Universal Principles of Design' a book that Microsoft needs to go back and read).

I understand, but if you are going to present information to support your point, present the facts as they are.

[@Strange-Quest]

One of the biggest downfalls, in my opinion, is Microsoft's tendency to force features on to users instead of giving them choice. With Windows 8, they could have made the tiles optional while keeping the main operating system intact. Instead, they forced users to adapt to their new, poorly designed system. A lot of times they actually do more work to stop users from doing what they want. Even small things, like the inability to move the taskbar to the top or sides in Windows 11, or reverting to the Windows 10 start menu layout, are unnecessarily restricted. It seems they go out of their way to limit customization and user preferences. Overtime, these limitations can lead to users resenting the operating system. In contrast, Apple tends to excel at refining small details, which contributes to a more positive user experience. Although I wish they had more customization features as well. It's like their are giant tech parents telling us how we should be using our operating system in this never-ending cat and mouse game. It's completely unnecessary. Microsoft baffles me time and time again they still have one of the best operating systems out there like it or not but they're decision-making seems to be completely detached from what the users want. Seems they have become "Tone deaf".

[@Strange-Quest]

I can imagine a world where, with better app support and more users, Chrome OS could be a real competitor. Even Samsung DEX, which is technically Linux-based, could allow users with the know-how to run any distro they want. I desire this. I want Windows to be good as well. I hope Microsoft makes the right decisions. However, I dislike that there's only one operating system that can be installed on most hardware and gets support for the majority of apps. Linux is available for most users, even if they don't realize it. But it's caught in a Catch-22. The people who install it are often tech-savvy and know what they're doing. For some of them, especially programmers, it's great. However, for creative users, it falls short due to lack of codecs and software. The general public, for whom Linux could work just fine, would have to learn how to install it and overcome their fear of it.

[@tomsmith6513]

I think it would be better if Microsoft got away from this "linear" approach to Windows versions, like Windows 10, Windows 11, 12, 13, etc. and requiring everyone to move on to that new version. Why not introduce a separate path/thread for Windows versions, with one that includes AI and modern web technologies or one that doesn't? They already do that with different hardware, with different versions of Windows on the x86/x64 family of CPUs and ARM. It's like with Android: there's a different version of Android called Android Go for low-end hardware. Some people aren't going to want to upgrade, or have an OS that uses AI, digital assistants and/or spies on people and sends private data back to Microsoft. Privacy is becoming a big issue these days. At some point there is going to be a backlash against this stuff. People will stop putting up with it. There may eventually be a shift away from AI, digital assistants and web technology, back to native/device-specific experiences. It's not just about Microsoft, but Google as well. A lot of people want Windows to be Windows and not an Android/iOS/Mac wannabe. The Windows experience was always a native/device-specific experience, not a web/mobile experience. There are Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Android emulators for that.

The issue with windows is that its being recycled SO MUCH EVERY SINGLE VERSION that its becoming way too broken and all Microsoft is doing is just applying "Modern themes" onto the part they WANT the users to see, not things like device manager or control panel.

I used MS-DOS back in 1989. It was its openness that I liked. Two years later, I encountered the Macintosh. It was three times the price and, essentially, just a desktop publishing tool. Its high degree of closedness immediately put me off. This has been true for all Apple products ever since. Only those who use a limited range of applications and have excess money use Apple products. Recently, Microsoft has also started moving in this direction, which is really leading towards the end. Linux will take its place among this user base. Apple's expansion is only apparent. It only seems to be growing because of their vast number of mobile devices.

​@@betag24cn it's clearly one of two things: either you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, or you're mentally retarded. first of all, Windows has a 70% of desktop OS market share. second, linux is popular in servers not because windows is bad, but because they serve different targets, and windows still have their market share among servers also Microsoft wouldn't start azure, if they wasn't sure about that third, linux popular generally among people who "don trust corporations" or it used by big companies for working machines, because they don't have to pay for license and last, why anyone should use Steam as their OS? just WHY?

[@BenjaminWagener]

MacOS taking over? In your dreams! As long as you can't use it legal and reliable on any other PC than Apple's own hardware, it won't happen. If anything, it is more likely that Linux will take over. But even that is unlikely in the foreseeable future, because most people simply use the pre-installed Windows on their machines because they don't know anything else and can't cope with anything else, and the business world, as well as most government agencies, are also largely dependent on software that runs on Windows and the officials are not willing to switch over just like that.

I don't think you really understood the kernel mode crash. MS did have features that restricted kernel level access, but could not implement these tools due to concerns about monopolism. Nothing should be using kernel level access, unless heavily audited, i.e. drivers etc. This is why since Vista most applications are restricted to user level mode, as the damage level cost is less severe. It is not as if other vendors have their own failures, only Windows is reported on more, as it's ubiquitous.

A lot of companies weren't effected by Crowdstrike, because there's a lot of other good EDR software. Hackers already knew about supply chain attacks, Kaseya is only one of these cases, but you don't easily execute a supply chain attack.

Windows XP annoyed me, and Windows Vista was just sad. Windows 7(1:01) was so aggravating, it finally convinced me to buy a Macintosh. I logged in as an Administrator, and Windows was going to tell me I didn't have access to some of my own files. I have been mostly a MacOS user ever since. That XT13 Pro(6:06) won't run MacOS, which you are saying is becoming more popular. It does run Windows, which you say is becoming increasingly worse. Though the Amazon link you provide, it lists for $950. A few hundred dollars more will purchase a well equipped Mac Mini, which comes with 10Gb ethernet and the same 1TB of storage. My favorite Windows was 2000(12:38), because it tell administrators they couldn't access a folder, didn't require activation, and had drivers for nearly every piece of hardware then available. Windows 8.1 brought back the menu when it was released in October 2013(17:08), but you didn't mention that. Linux has a steep learning curve(27:42). I prefer MacOS, but your video is bias and inconsistent.

However - nowdays the other windows machines have been turned into linux beasts and work much better. Unless you have an absolute requirement/dependancy for a very few MS services - most people could move to linux or Mac without any great issues - and when my Macs can't be upgraded any further... they're going to be moved to linux as well.

In my opinion MS should listen to the public, see what independent designers have been mocking up, get these ideas, but more importantly, deliver an OS WITHOUT telemetry, third-party software pre-intalled, One Drive, useless apps, animations and consuming less than 1.5GiB of RAM.

[@Lagrangeify]

According to Statcounter and Statista's desktop market share data OS X dropped approx 4.5% in Q4 with a slight continued decline to just shy of 14% in July. Windows mirrors this rather neatly, rising approx 3.5% and bumping along at around 72% to date. This despite substantial upgrades to Silicon with very little gap between suggests they are not busy creating converts so much as preaching to the choir. And I mean this with no malice - this entire presentation is replete with bias. I'll leave the aggravating task of countering it to those smarter and more inclined than I am.

And this while I had Windows already hang on 99% wth the update from W7 to W10. I had it with Windows and I decided to switch to Linux and only boot into Windows for playing some games. In 2020 I removed Windows and I haven't had a Windows-partition since then. I also had multiple broken systems of Windows, 1 particular bug after an update (it happened twice) and not even booting at all on other occasions. On my current laptop which shipped with Windows (my desktop is my main PC) Windows just won't be stable, it BSOD's once every hour, I put Linux on it and it seems to be rocksolid stable.
