and you'll sell the new console 6 months after release because it'll be outdated?


6 months doesn't make something outdated. 5 years does.

He does kind of have a point here. With the next gen around the corner, unless you are currently invested in this generation and need a replacement console, it's not the best idea to invest in one now.

And we're off.

Microsoft has seen the future of personal computing, and it's a world with a single Windows ecosystem. Windows Phone head honcho Andy Lees -- who said that we won't be seeing WP7 on tablets during Microsoft's Worldwide Partner Conference yesterday -- still sees slates, phones, consoles, and PCs playing together in perfect harmony. His plan is to provide users with a consistent experience across all Microsoft-powered devices, though he didn't flesh out exactly how this singular ecosystem will work. Given recent evidence indicating Xbox integration in Windows 8 and the UI similarities between the forthcoming desktop OS and WP7, it seems that Microsoft is well on its way to a consolidated future. But, only time will tell if Mr. Lees' can deliver us from fragmentation with a unified Windows.

The experience would have to be rather consistent to get me off of IOS. All my apps are there and I'm used to how it works.

Microsoft will have some challenges ahead when the days of "C:\Program Files" are long gone... everything is shifting towards web app or app-store. It'll be interesting because Linux will become a stronger competitor when so many interfaces are in HTML, especially if Ubuntu refines their App browser/installer/search utility more (forget what it's called). And Apple is already all set.
