We are all friends here, we all talk about
Microsoft

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
No one makes fun of anyone

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Lea Leport is out this week, I am 
Megan Morrone filling in and

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Megan sorry to interrupt, but I feel
like you don't understand the purpose

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
of this show, because actually
<i>Laughing</i>

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I was trying to start on a postive note
but Paul, Paul Therote from therote.com

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
the man who can make fun of anything
and Mary Jo Folley also

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
not stragely configured despite the fact 
that she cannot fit a laptop on her lap

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
we will talk about that later

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Thank you so much for coming here and 
sharing your positive and negative

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
views of Windows this week.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Paul: Wow
<i>Laughing</i>

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Mary: You have a lot to live up to after
that.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Megan: Yeah you do, you do.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Well lets start with the fun stuff first

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
the Xbox One X

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I am still calling it project Scorpio

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
because that is a much better name

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
but we are told to call it Xbox One X

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
I think this is your beat Paul, although I
would love to know what Mary JO

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
feels about the Xbox One X.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Paul: She pipped in in the notes I noticed.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Mary: Its funny, yesterday I said to Paul
on messaging

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So I don't sound idiotic on Windows Weekly
how do you say Xbox One with the X

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Is it Xbox one ten or is it Xbox One X?

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Paul: Oh boy

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Mary: and the reason I ask is I am one 
of those people.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Paul: I couldn't find the appropriate face
palm GIF to send to her

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Mary: No, you know what I am one of those 
people who could never train myself

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
because I don't talk about it often.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
To call Apple's operating system OS ten
I always call it OSX.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Paul: Right, a lot of people did do that.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Mary: And I still do, thats why I was 
curious about that.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Paul: Well now they leave it off so you 
can just not call it anything.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Mary: I know, now it doesn't matter.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Yeah, so here is my summary of the
announcement

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and this is all I'll say in this segment.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Paul: Oh come on, well I mean aside from
where you would buy it.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Mary: TLDR you want to know about 
Xbox One X

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
want to know about Xbox One X?
It's another black gaming console

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
costs $500 ships November 7th
there we go, you're done.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Paul: I have a slightly more nuanced
view of it than that.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Mary: Do you?
Do you? Surprising.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Megan: It's future look, its forward 
looking. Right Paul?

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Paul: yeah, I mean you know

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
There is a big change going on in
the video game world.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Actually there is a bunch of big changes.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So consoles are being revved midstream

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which never happened before

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Right? So you have this roughly
eight year product life cycle.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
In the past that eight years was one
console, no changes.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
You know except for maybe some cosmetic
and cost reducing type of things.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
but the specs basically were always
the same

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Microsoft and Sony this time
are revving their consoles midstream

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and there are some huge advantages to that

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Including backwards compatibility 
without having to go through emulation

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and then you can address new capabilities

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
in this case like, 4k UHD, HDR.
you know things like that.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Microsoft is kind of taking 
that to a different level as well

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
because they have expanded the notion
of what Xbox is

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
to include Windows 10 PCs

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and while its not 100% compatible across
the board it never will be.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
We already have a bunch of things that
are common between the two platforms.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
You can play some of the same games
through Xbox Play anywhere.
