[dba-Tech] Another OS but different

[Salakhetdinov Shamil]

 Hi Dan --

Pity :(

Well, Microsoft Display Dock is worth ~USD90 (its current price here) to try - this Continuum (computing) experience promise to become mainstream very soon - and Microsoft is "ahead of all the planet" this time with ready to use hardware and software to develop Universal Windows Apps, which (with some modifications) will also run on IPhone/iPad/Mac/Android... - not as well probably as native apps for these other computing platforms but it's just the beginning....

Thank you.

>>Shamil,

>>If you bought your 950 before the end of January, you may be able to get a free dock if you request it by the end of February.  MS says limited quantities.  Good Luck!
