Summary: Another "KIN" (just with a lot more marketing) is what Vista Phony 7 [sic] appears to be, implies a tight-lipped Microsoft
WHENEVER Microsoft releases a new product it quickly stuffs the channel and then brags about "sales" (to shops, not to customers). After the "KIN" disaster Microsoft was unable to stuff warehouses, so it never truly bragged about any numbers at all after it had released Vista Phony 7 [sic] to the tune of ~$500,000,000 in advertising. Well, guess what? Vista Phony 7 sales numbers appear to have been internally embargoed because Microsoft is dodging this question to which it certainly knows the answer. Watch the following new video (requires Adobe Trash [sic], sorry):
All signs indicate that Microsoft wants to "exit" the XBox business (not brand), but it does not want to publicly admit this as it would alarm staff and shareholders
Considering the huge proportion of Web requests that come from LLM bots (more so this past year or two), statCounter may struggle to justify the operating costs
The corporate media is projecting or signalling its own dishonesty when it tells us that Microsoft is a very "valuable" company while the data shows Microsoft is also a "market leader" in layoffs
For those of us who turned down those propositions there was a struggle; we needed to justify not having skinnerboxes or "social" accounts in some site run by a private company
In a lot of ways, so-called 'Vibe Coding' is already considered vapourware or a passing fad promoted in the media by managers who try to justify mass layoffs, especially ridding companies of "very expensive" software engineers
