Bill Gates - Technology Advisor of Microsoft

Satya Nadella - Chief Executive Officer of Microsoft Satya Nadella is Chief Executive Officer of Microsoft. Before being named CEO on February 4, 2014, Nadella held leadership roles in both enterprise and consumer businesses across the company. After joining Microsoft in 1992, Nadella quickly became known within the company as a leader who could span a breadth of technologies and businesses to transform some of Microsoft’s biggest product offerings. Prior to his role as CEO, Nadella was executive vice president of Microsoft’s Cloud and Enterprise group, one of the company’s fastest-growing and most profitable businesses. While Nadella was there, the group’s revenue increased by 22 percent, and its profits by 33 percent. Previously, Nadella led R&D for the Online Services Division, guiding the development of one of the largest cloud infrastructures in the world, to support products including Bing, Xbox and Office. Before joining Microsoft, Nadella was a member of the technology staff at Sun Microsystems. As Microsoft’s third CEO (succeeding Steve Ballmer and Bill Gates), Satya Nadella brings a relentless drive for innovation and a spirit of collaboration to the role. He says he joined Microsoft 22 years ago because he saw how clearly Microsoft empowers people to do magical things and ultimately make the world a better place. Many companies, he explains, “aspire to change the world. But very few have all the elements required: talent, resources and perseverance. Microsoft has proven that it has all three in abundance.” Originally from Hyderabad, India, where he was born on August 19, 1967, Nadella now lives in Bellevue, Wash. He holds a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Mangalore University, a master’s degree in computer science from the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee and a master’s degree in business administration from the University of Chicago. Nadella is married and has three children. In his spare time, he loves to read poetry and follows cricket, a sport he played in school as a child.

Looks good. Much of the litigation risk has been mitigated.

^ The update should be free to focus on OEM sales. Windows will be the cost leader in terms of strategy. Resources will hopefully be channeled to other products.

Aviation is an accurate science.

The peak-tram-on-steroids look interesting. The peak offers a good view of Hong Kong. The C:S simulation actually looks quite realistic from this perspective.

This must be an airport-on-steroids.

Microsoft Windows is a series of graphical interface operating systems developed, marketed, and sold by Microsoft. Microsoft Windows came to dominate the world's personal computer market with over 90% market share, overtaking Mac OS, which had been introduced in 1984. I started this new topic here in General Off-Topic because it is necessary to have a single topic for all the Windows related issues and topics. Which version of Microsoft Windows do you use? I use Microsoft Windows for work, study and leisure. I have used personal computers with Windows XP and Windows 7 installed.
