Ever heard of Project Centennial?

Or the fact that all new APIs are mostly UWP only?



Yes, and how's that coming along? Is this "project" supposed to make those old clunky non touch optimized windows desktop apps suddenly usable on a tablet? I don't think so. Instead its going to be another failure just like Project Astoria and Project Islandwood.


Astoria was the start of a lot of the technology behind the Windows Subsystem for Linux, if i remember correctly. I use WSL every day, so that was definitely not a failure in my book.
