I love that we call New Zealanders "kiwis." Anybody else do that elsewhere? Maybe we could call US residents wild turkeys or call Californians acorn woodpeckers. #birding

@stshank We call people from Massachusetts "Massholes." It's ... similar. :)

@aarondglover I think so too.

When I switched to Windows in 2012 and then purchased an Xbox One on release, the biggest mistake I made was not following @thurrott 's advice.

He said don't buy movies from Microsoft. He was right. Very few of my 100-ish purchases are available on Movies Anywhere.

Now that Windows is becoming as bad as a click bait website, I am moving back to Mac and it's an issue.

@thurrott Re: the Surface event. Maybe it's like politics and when no one is happy that's the best compromise? 😜 But seriously, as an outsider watching the replay, it was very clear to me that all 3 chip makers and multiple PC makers were involved. I don't think they should be very upset.

@AwsmSpaceMonkey They were asked to leave the campus, in one case on the day of the event. They were expecting to be on stage.

@PeterFalkingham That one wasn't OLED.
