Can Microsoft stem the rising tide of frustration and abandonment long enough to debut Windows 10?

Why, Microsoft?

This question is becoming all to frequent these days among Microsoft product users. The vocal minority are now becoming the increasingly frustrated majority with each passing day.

While some stories like, 'I've given up on Windows Phone', 'Here's what's wrong with Windows 8' or What is (still) wrong with Microsoft's Window's Phone strategy, have been sensationalized by the tech media, their origins share the overwhelming frustration many current users are having.

The confused Microsoft user


Microsoft fans and enthusiast are finding it harder and harder to sift through the arbitrary sense of secrecy Microsoft is still clinging to in a post-Sinofsky era. Rather than coherent and readily viewable press conferences, Microsoft teams go into great length babbles about specific product features but have relatively little to say on the much bigger issues facing the platform. The growing concern for some users, fans or enthusiast is the ambiguity at which Satya Nadella and Microsoft seem to be approaching their future, as well as the future of users.

Sorry, ZDNet, Verge articles? Both are (and have been for a long time) anti-Microsoft. One is pro-Apple and Linux, and the other is just pro-Apple. Betanews has a decent article about the morass that has been Windows Phone, but none of that is new, and none of that will have an impact on Windows 10 (on any platform). It's an interesting read into the current state for sure, but it's not really anything that will have an impact other than on upgrades for Windows Phone 8.1 users (and, as we all know and the betanews article points out, is a small portion of the global smartphone market share anyway). WinBeta is usually better than resorting to click-bait, but this is bait.

Just my 2 cents.
