WW 528: B is for Brad




Windows Weekly (Video LO) show

Summary: <p>A rundown of some of the news from the Microsoft earnings announcement. The Great Paint Fiasco of 2017 and how many claimed that Microsoft said it was killing Paint. But it didn't. Actually, they're going to put it in the Store. It's where all apps go to die. New Insider build just out -- PC-phone linking, Cortana voice commands, etc. Windows Insiders can now skip ahead to Redstone 4 if they want. That means the Fall Creators Update is done. Surface Pro 4 got a massive set of firmware updates over the weekend. Plus, a Cortana-powered smart thermostat. And finally, Adobe kills Flash. Well, WILL kill Flash.</p><ul> <li>Tip of the week: Buy a 1 TB Xbox One S Bundle, Get a Free Game</li> <li>App pick of the week: Kaspersky Free</li> <li>Enterprise pick of the week: Azure Container Instances</li> <li>Codename pick of the week: Project Rome</li> <li>Beer pick of the week: Gun Hill Citra Sour Soft Serve</li> </ul> <p><strong>Hosts:</strong> <a href="https://twit.tv/people/leo-laporte">Leo Laporte</a>, <a href="https://twit.tv/people/mary-jo-foley">Mary Jo Foley</a>, and <a href="https://twit.tv/people/paul-thurrott">Paul Thurrott</a></p> <p>Download or subscribe to this show at <a href="https://twit.tv/shows/windows-weekly">https://twit.tv/shows/windows-weekly</a></p><p>Check out Paul's blog at <a href="https://www.thurrott.com/" target="_blank">thurrott.com</a></p><p>Check out Mary Jo's blog at <a href="http://allaboutmicrosoft.com/" target="_blank">AllAboutMicrosoft.com</a></p><p>Thanks to <a href="https://www.cachefly.com/" target="_blank">CacheFly</a> for the bandwidth for this show.</p><p>The Windows Weekly theme music is courtesy of <a href="https://twitter.com/carlfranklin" target="_blank">Carl Franklin</a>.</p>
