Google gave the world a first look at the Chrome OS. The press event confirmed what was suspected when Google announced it was working on a netbook operating system four months ago -- it would emphasize speed and simplicity. As the tech world tests versions of the operating system that were compiled from Google's source code it is looking like the project's priorities may be weaknesses.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
Things are really getting heated amongst the two giants.
Finally, I company to give the big MS a challenge
I wish it wasn't open source. I'd like to see Google to go into the home computer and business OS area. Something that everybody would use.
Hope it doesn't look tacky like the browser.
I currently have it running through vm ware, people need to forget about how it looks, A its very early and B knowing Google you will be able to customize it
MS has gotten old, I use Windows 7 and Love it, Im an IT Manager but MS turn is over, they didnt do so well over all. Google it time to slowly dominate
And one that requires wi-fi access for everyone in the nation (and world). But we'll eventually get there, kind of like how everyone qualifies for television in the U.S. Google's ideas are amazing, but I probably won't feel secure unless Microsoft and Apple follow in their footsteps and add some competition to the Cloud Computing Market.
The level of security that they're packing into Chrome OS though is frickin' incredible, and I love the user interface.
