I like some of their developer products that said… Wtf is with their marketing department? I’m a techy and play some games but if someone asked me to buy them a Xbox I honestly don’t know which one is best… Xbox one series S? I think??
Now atleast on Playstation I know it’s ps5 as it’s the biggest number.
You want Nintendo… Switch as it’s a different enough name to make it stick.
Imagine going to but a truck… Do you want a Ford f150, a Ford f150 series x or a ford f150 series s? Now keep in mind a Ford f150 can’t go on any roads built in last 5 years and if you pick the wrong series letter your speed is capped at 30mph…
Don’t get me started on visual studio vs visual studio code…
To be fair, cars do kind of have that problem. Nissan has cars like the Altima S, SL, SV, SR. We can assume the S is the base model, but what the hell do the rest mean.
but if someone asked me to buy them a Xbox I honestly don’t know which one is best… Xbox one series S? I think??
Aaaand they’ve already failed. Series S is barely better than the previous gen, it’s Series X that you want.
The only real benefit of having an xbox is that you cross-own the games with PC. BUT you’re restricted to the Windows Store versions, so you can’t play on Linux, so for me at least the benefit immediately washes away, as I no longer use Windows. Oh well, I’ll just buy my games on Steam and sure, SOME of them will be Microsoft games, but only titles in the like 2 or 3 franchises I care about, Forza and… Oh wait, it’s not like the next TES game is ever going to come out. So it’s just Forza.
Teams vs Teams for Work or School vs New Teams. .NET Framework vs .NET Standard vs .NET Core vs what they just call .NET now. Office vs Office 365 vs Microsoft 365. Microsoft is never not confusing.
And they haven’t managed to come up with a decent product in decades.

I mean this is basically ford. What is XL XLT and LARIAT even mean for example.

Car companies like Ford do that sometimes; what the fuck does the LS badge on my S10 mean? I think it means it has carpet.

Ps5 has the same problem. Is it the latest more powerful version? Can it take discs?
Hey! I use bing sometimes, just to keep things a bit spicy.
Edit: oh, nevermind. Bing is 15 years old. I should probably look into retirement homes…
