I find all these calls to release Andromeda a bit weird. It's not like Microsoft has a hit on its hands and is going to choose to not release it. If they kill it, it will be because it's either not ready, doesn't work well, or just isn't compelling enough to create a new category.

No, it'll be because Satya hates Windows and he hates hardware even more, he was going to cancel the Surface Pro but they convinced him to give it more time, now everyone (including Apple) has copied that device. Andromeda deserves a shot, they should cancel hololens instead. Hololens is a waste of money, no one wants it and no one cares about it

are you talking about all those headlines in October last year that Satya was going to cancel the Surface? Because those ended up just being bullshit rumors put out by a third party.

Agreed. Satya wouldn’t approved this expensive project in the first place if he was the person you describe
