I think most of you said I was full of BS when I mentioned this 3 years ago...

He brings this fact up every few months, he keeps it fresh.
I'm pretty sure it was BS or Woot that he was arguing with.
You speak for no-one. But you cared enough to chime in...
Because you invest. And part of investing is following trends and products of things you don't "care" about.

UCFBS was specifically the person who said I hallucinated when this was spilled at the Live360 development conference. Said it was a technical impossibility. I am trying to bait him...shhhhhhh....

Now if only you could be right about UCF to the B12.
No one is going to acknowledge or apologize.
An Xbox One is a PC, just like the original Xbox. The only Xbox that wasn't a PC was the 360, which was a triple-Power core.
Since the move to the NT-based kernel with Mobile, away from CE, it was inevitable. In fact, why did it take so long?
Heck, a lot of games aren't even developed on Windows the last decade.

Ummm, the Xbox One is a PC! It's two (2) quad-core AMD Jaguars. I said that since Day 1, especially since Windows Mobile now being NT-kernel. This means the libraries and bytecode can be identical.
SIDE NOTE: The Xbox 360 was not, a triple-core Power. The original Xbox was a PC, a Pentium III.
The issue we were talking about back then was how the Windows phones could not run Win32/x86 bytecode without emulation. That's why Microsoft was creating a .NET payload for non-Win32/x86 to emulate Win32/x86, even for Win64/x86-64 too. But the point is now moot because Microsoft has stopped all new development all phones and non-x86.
In fact, that's what I predicted they might do! Microsoft is now becoming Apple, one of Intel's biggest PC OEMs.
Damn.
I guess my memory is fried.
So, it wasn't BS...although he's aptly named.
Backfired. Phooey.

No, it was me.
But we were talking non-x86 phones running Windows Mobile.
I also remember bringing up how the Xbox One is a PC.
If anything ... Microsoft finally dropping almost everything non-x86 has come true.
Remember, also included the Surface 3 being a PC, no longer a non-PC.
Now they've dropped all future development on non-x86 phones too.
Which smacks that whole "Dev" non-sense too (told you it was marketing!)
As I mentioned from the get-go ...
I know a number of long-time, core CE/NT architects from Microsoft.
Internals have been my thing for a long, long time, and the realities that go along with it.
Microsoft is becoming Apple, one of Intel's main PC OEMs.
When does he not kill a thread?
Na...I never argued with you about the phones. I also shared the info regarding the elimination of RT in favor of a homogenous environment across all devices. I held the new 6-core lumia phone with full desktop at the Live360 conference 2 years ago and shared it. I was on the same page. It was someone else...not you BS. I admit my error. You are arguing with yourself. I have known the xbox is a pc since the original arrived in 2000. I used to mod them and reflash them.

I assumed it was BS as well, mainly because he's dumb. I guess it could've been the whole x86 bullshit I can't even remember. Only other person would be woot.
