Microsoft Edge is already good enough for me to drop Chrome

Right now the only browser I use is Chrome.  It is lightning fast and it works with everything.  I'm hopeful that this new Edge meets the expectations that this article sets.  Having a good choice from Microsoft for a browser is something that has not been available for a while.

What Microsoft flagship stores can learn from Apple retail stores - Fortune

I've been to the current Microsoft store at the Mall of America and I really like it.  I send customers and prospects there when the are trying to figure out what kid of device they would like to use.  Sometimes they need more than just a description from me over the phone and a link on a web site.  With this new flagship store it will be interesting to what changes they end up making to the MOA store.  I like the Microsoft store better than a Best Buy because it is more customer/experience focused and less sales focused.

Microsoft unveils Surface Pro 4 and its first-ever laptop, the convertible Surface Book with 13.5-inch removable touchscreen

Based on my experience with the Lonovo Yoga and the Microsoft Surface pro 3.  These new offerings from Microsoft are thoughtful and powerful.  I can't wait so see them live.  I'm glad Microsoft is setting and raising the bar for other manufacturers including Apple.  As a remote worker I really love the ability to use my Yoga in several different configurations depending on the requirements of my interaction.  Also, when I dock it back at the office it drives 2 additional monitors and has plenty of horsepower.  These new offerings from Microsoft will provide that same type of functionality.
