Microsoft Announces Windows 10 and Brings us What Windows 8 Should Have Been
Microsoft announced their next version of Windows yesterday and the world focused on one thing: the name. While it is true that the decision to jump from Windows 8 to Windows 10 was an unusual one, it certainly should not be what we all focus on. After all Microsoft is known for rather glaring PR and Marketing errors, so why should a clumsy name really be news worthy?
Free Windows 9 Upgrade Rumors Might Be Way Over Stated
As the clock ticks down to today’s “launch” of Microsoft’s next operating system the rumors are ramping up along with the articles about what Microsoft must do to make the next flavor of Windows work. One of the latest rumors to hit the streets is that Windows 9 (or whatever it will be called) will be free if you have Windows 8.x installed legally.

Unless you have been living under a rock you have probably heard the joke that Microsoft only makes a good OS every other try.

Now there appears to be more proof to this tale as we have a string of consumer disappointing operating systems separated by much more accepted versions.
Microsoft Warms up the Old News From Build 2014... Windows 9 to get a Start Menu
When Microsoft announced a new CEO in the form of Satya Nadella we felt that Microsoft would be staying the course laid out by Steve Ballmer. After all Nadella was a cloud guy himself and had put in a lot of time building Microsoft’s cloud offerings. However our minds were changed very early on when a few well-placed press released were called to our attention. It seems that Nadella had a much more complex game he wanted to play.
Microsoft to bring back the Start Menu in Windows 9
We have some sad news for anyone hoping that Microsoft would come to their senses and bring back the start menu in a future update to Windows 8.
