Why can't Microsoft into visual design?
>>
Microsoft is the one on the top my friend.

They have more important things to focus on.

Apple doesn't have any standout features, and has to trick its fanbase into buying it based on aesthetics alone.

Think of it like buying an amazingly beautiful paper weight.

I know this is b8 but I don't see how anyone with an eye for aesthetics wouldn't prefer the top one (Cortana excluded).

Microsoft being better than Apple doesn't make Microsoft good. We're comparing two turds here.

>Microsoft being better than Apple
Huh?
>>
>>51310985
I guess they just don't care that much. Sure, they did the whole metro bullshit, but it's not really the center of their work. Nobody really cares that much at Microsoft. At Apple the whole company structure places design at the top. It's taken very seriously over there.

Except for being a stable and easy to use POSIX compliant OS.

I assume your idea of "standout feature" is being able to run Fallout?
>>
>>51311303
It's just how the two companies are structured, which is not exactly secret information.
>>
>>51311408
GNU/Linux and BSD are both stable and POSIX compliant without the need to eat shit from your own hands.

There it is The stupid anti Indian racist comment posted everywhere on /pol/ I NOW want to tell you something, sir. NOW.
Im INDIAN and you can count on me to be there to bring your fucking life to a hellish end, sir. I'll put you in so much fucking pain that it'll make jesus being nailed to a cross in the desert look like a fucking back message on a tropic island. I don't give a fuck how tought you are, how well you can fight, or how many fucking guns you own to protect yourself, sir. I'll fucking show up at your house when you aren't at home, sir. I'll turn all the lights on in your house, leave all the water running, open your fridge door and not close it, and turn your gas stove burners on and let them waste gas, sir. You're going to start stressing the fuck out, your blood pressure will triple, and you'll have a fucking heart attack, sir. You'll go to the hospital for heartoperation, and the last thing you'll see when you're being put under in the operating room is me hovering above you, dressed up like a doctor, sir. When you wake up after the operation, you'll be scared for your fuckinglife, wondering what I did to you while you were being operated on, wondering what ticking time bomb is in your chest waiting to go off, sir. You'll recover fully from your heart surgery, sir. And when you walk out the front door of that hospital to go home, I'll run you over with my fucking car out of nowhere and kill you, sir. I just want you to know how easily I could fucking destroy your pathetic excuse of a life, but how I'd rather go to a great length to make sure your last remaining days are spent in a living, breathing hell, sir.
It's too fucking late to save yourself, but don't bother committing suicide either...I'll resuscitate you and kill you again myself you bitchfaced faggot, sir. Welcome to hell, population:YOU, sir.

Implying Apple design isn't ugly doodles for little kids in this instance.
Really, this side by side comparison wreks apple anus.
>>
>>51310985
Windows looks nicer to be honest. Also, docks are objectively ugly.
>>
>>51311698

it came full circle.

MS and Apple made their respective OS's "prettier" and with more visual effects, 'till it began inhibiting performance (see vista), then came the 'flat' and 'minimal' modern movement.

I like it, honestly.

>>51311832

legacy support, for those who don't want to use the new one.

don't change it at all, people bitch
replace it w/ new one, people bitch
keep both? people bitch
>>
>>51311716
Of course, now it looks dated. Back in the day it was among the common design concepts.

Now this, on the other hand>>51311698
just looks Pajeet was either six years old and/or lazy as fuck.

The microphone you can make out after a few seconds.
But what is that right symbol even supposed to mean? If you can't make out what a pictogram is supposed to mean, you have failed as a designer - simple as that.

>'till it began inhibiting performance (see vista), then came the 'flat' and 'minimal' modern movement.
and yet it still leads to worse performance
>>
im a macfag myself but i think the flat icon design looks better
>>
>>51310985
Apple seems to mix a slight angled 3d look and a flat look. Looks like shit.
>>
>>51311904
so it isn't a meme and it's just you reposting it in multiple threads over and over
congratulations

it really doesn't,
this may be too complex for you so I'll try to keep it succinct;
