Time and time again, Microsoft promises to change, to reinvent itself -- all they've been doing is taking existing issues customers had with them and making them worse.

Shame, such a shame. I've stopped believing in Nadella's aura of the saviour who reinvents the company when Windows 10 was released.

I've switched to Apple since and even with all of their mess-ups, it's a whole world of difference. I really hope that they're gonna turn it around soon, to.

Kind of a shame that Linux does not have the same application support macOS and Windows does, I'd switch to that, if it had.

"the next version will be better, promise"

I've heard that with Windows, Office, IE, and Sharepoint. I'd happily give up the esc key to avoid that hell.

I don't mind the touch bar, I find it pretty interesting, although I only own two 2015 models (I should've waited a bit, I admit). I mostly mind the battery life they're giving up for thinness and various design mess ups that are so un-Apple. (like newer features in iOS, such as Apple Music, etc.)
