R.I.P Internet explorer + free windows 10
-
Microsoft to kill off IE.

Windows 10 is free:
-
And what about Windows 9?
-
-
It seems Windows 10 will be free for the first year.
I believe they will sell it as a subscription so we'll have to pay each year to use it/get fixes.
I don't like subscriptions. -
What happened to SketchUp 9?
They skipped 2,004 versions and no one batted an eyelid.
-
I wonder what Trimble will do with webdialogs if MS gets rid of IE. Go with Spartan, or finally embed a browser? Or completely ditch webdialogs?
-
Considering SketchUp runs on a PS2 game dev engine might be time to rewrite from scratch.
-
Finally an OS 10. MS is trying to catch up. Will they use "X" or give the releases special names? Cats is done. Maybe dogs?
-
I'm sticking with Win95...

Windows 10 will work across device form factors
that sounds like a good move.. glad to see they're taking it on themselves and doing it first.
(or, glad to see they haven't given up on the idea and are making a full commitment instead of what they tried with that other semi windows.. the one for surface)also, it might quiet a swath of apple haters complaining "oh oh.. osx is trying to be too much like ios "
as if that type of integration will do more bad than good. -

I don't like subscriptions.I read it and I interpreted it as being free inside the 1st year of its release, nothing is mentioned about a subscription.

I don't like subscriptions.nope don't worry. free for the first year, then its back to the standard model, (as now, pay to install), no subs needed.

Good question.
Ditching webdialogs would put me in a somewhat bad mood, since invested so much time (and code) in dealing with them.
It would break many plugins, that's for sure.

what the? that looks awesome
i imagine it may take quite some time to get it really usable (or to lessen the size/requirement of the headset ) but still..

Intriguing idea but way beyond what I use a PC for.
