Uh... No, we're not in agreement.

@casperiv: You're saying violence is a reasonable consequence to not following some bullshit flight rule.

@mikepetty: Interestingly, some of my colleagues are EE's (I'm a CS guy myself). Pretty brilliant programmers. I don't know if it's just because they are brilliant or if there's a certain skill you learn from EE that helps in CS.

@The Werewolf: Agreed. I never understood why the obvious career move was to transition into management. I know I'd be miserable in a job where I don't get to take part of the implementation of the software. I studied computer science, gd! Give the manager role to the damn MBA.

@OgilvyTheAstronomer: I think there are plenty of people who would find value in a netbook without a keyboard that can be docked once you get to your desk. All MS needs to do is have a touch-friendly (much more than the pithy Windows 7 touch "enhancements") when it's not docked. That hasn't been done before and I…

Too expensive. Glasses limitation is annoying.

I think it's ok to have the choice of either an appliance-like device (iPad and its friends) and a "netbook without the keyboard" Windows 7 tablet.

Tell us how you really feel, Sam.

Wave was great. I used it quite successfully for brainstorming, team-based communication and keeping notes. The "nobody knows what it's for, urr hurr hurr hurr" joke has really gone stale.

I think this would work really well for ladder tournaments.

Beta software doesn't have all promised capabilities? *pouts*

Huh, you'd think big media outlets would at least verify the veracity of their information. Even the most half-assed fact-checking would've uncovered the fact that these were not rape charges.

@goodwood8: I liked it too. Haters gon' hate.

I approve.

Everyone has a better idea. Maybe they should put you in charge. Oh, that's right, the only contribution you'd make is an idea.

@tande04: I want one but have to wait a few more months before I'm eligible for an upgrade. I wish the Venue Pro was on AT&T.

Weaponize it!

@DfizzleShizzle: I'd imagine they'd actually use XNA for cranking out indie Kinect games. But maybe they'd also integrate Kinect with Silverlight for non-gaming applications.

@Faisal Al-Moaiqel: They're focusing on HTML5 on the browser (HTML5 can't exist out of the browser anyway), and making Silverlight into a managed code platform for appliance devices, like your Windows Phone and your Xbox and your TV and your tablet and everything in between.
