Google’s move to bring Android off phones and onto full desktop PCs has crossed a new milestone: an internal project codenamed Aluminium OS is now the focal point of a multi-year plan to merge Android’s app-rich ecosystem with ChromeOS’s device management and familiarity. What was once a whisper...

Microsoft’s announcement that Windows 11 has passed the 1 billion‑user mark landed as both milestone and mirror: a headline achievement that confirms broad platform reach, and a prompt to scrutinize what “1 billion users” actually measures and why it matters now. The company revealed the figure...

Microsoft confirmed during its latest earnings commentary that Windows 11 has crossed the 1 billion active‑device threshold, and the company noted the OS reached that milestone faster than Windows 10 — a claim that reshapes the narrative around Windows 11’s adoption and forces a closer look at...

Windows 11 reaching one billion users — and doing it faster than Windows 10 — is the kind of headline that gets product teams, OEM partners, and IT departments talking. Microsoft quietly confirmed the milestone during its fiscal Q2, 2026 commentary, and company executives have since framed the...

Microsoft’s new first‑party Slack → Teams migration tool simplifies moving channels — but it won’t bring over your private chats, leaving Slack direct messages (DMs) and group chats stranded unless you take extra steps. This gap is not a bug so much as an architecture and policy decision...

PC makers and Microsoft expected the Windows 11 rollout to accelerate after the public countdown to Windows 10’s end-of-support, but real-world telemetry and vendor statements show a slower, more fractured migration — with Windows 11 growth coming largely from new hardware and niche segments...

When Microsoft closed the Windows 10 support window on October 14, 2025, it did more than flip a lifecycle switch — it forced an operational reckoning for organisations that still run significant numbers of older PCs, industrial systems, and bespoke endpoints that cannot meet Windows 11’s...

Microsoft has officially stopped providing security updates, feature updates, and standard technical support for Windows 10 as of October 14, 2025 — and for most users the practical next step is to move to Windows 11 (if your PC is eligible) or enroll in the temporary Extended Security Updates...
