MS Windows Going Way of Buffalo-V10 is end of the line

Evidently Microsoft will not make another version of windows after Windows 10. The OS wasn't designed for web books and faces tough competition from open source operating systems these days-popular especially with the poor of the emerging computer world. One hopes that MS Word will be adapted quickly for sale to linux operating systems or even given as freeware in order to serve as a platform to offer additional services to all of the emerging world writers and business people yearning to have low-cost computers.

In fact, since alpha smarts went the way of the Buffalo in 2013 apparently, the excellent NEO that is a prime writer's tool for those without an electrical plug in might be reproduced by Microsoft with its MSWord built in. If the NEO was made from a solar panel for recharging batteries and the keyboard had a wifi and sold for under $15 dollars millions of people might find it interesting. Well, it would be good if Microsoft was so practical.
