(ThinkBook Plus Gen 6) Lenovo makes a lot of weird laptops now (like the dual-screen Yoga Book 9i Paul reviewed last year) — apparently they didn't get the message after Microsoft cancelled the Surface Neo and Windows 10X.

Ten years ago yesterday, Microsoft released Windows 10, fixing the issues with Windows 8.x and giving Windows 7 users a solid upgrade.

With Brian still on a boat, the remaining dorks return to just talk about whatever comes to mind! We touch on the recent celebrity deaths before heading into video games we've been playing lately. We spend a fair amount of time on Baldur's Gate 3 since two of us have been playing it (and it's really freakin' good). We complain about Windows 11 hardware requirements too, because that's capitalist nonsense. From there we wander for a while, hitting Stranger Things, being inundated with Star Wars & Star Trek shows, really bad scenes in otherwise not horrible films, and Brussels sprouts. We end the episode by circling back to Baldur's Gate, discussing getting old, and some random DoorDash nonsense. Come join us in the future!

News and Updates: SpaceX slapped a $1,000 “demand surcharge” on new Starlink Residential subscribers in parts of Washington, Oregon, and Northern Idaho, pushing startup costs as high as $1,349. The fee aims to slow adoption and prevent network congestion — a sharp climb from $100 last year. Windows 11 has finally overtaken Windows 10 in global desktop market share. Statcounter data shows Windows 11 now holds 52%, after nearly four years and hardware requirement hurdles slowed its rollout. Microsoft's push included full-screen upgrade ads and end-of-life warnings for Windows 10. A deep report reveals a culture shift inside Microsoft, as AI investment frenzy and post-Covid leadership changes undermine employee morale. Long-time staff describe a climate of fear, layoffs, and performance metrics tied to AI tool use like Copilot — with CFO Amy Hood said to be steering strategy over Satya Nadella. Amazon now operates over 1 million robots in its warehouses, with automation assisting 75% of global deliveries. While robots have replaced many manual tasks, Amazon says it's retraining workers for higher-skilled roles managing the machines. Productivity has soared, though concerns persist over future job cuts in heavily automated sites.

Ingram Micro has suffered a significant ransomware attack attributed to the SafePay group, disrupting its systems and affecting deliveries across multiple regions. The attack, which is believed to have exploited vulnerabilities in the company's GlobalProtect virtual private network, has left its website and online ordering systems offline since July 5, 2025. SafePay claims to have accessed sensitive data, including financial information and customer records, and has demanded a ransom for data security. This incident highlights the fragility of the supply chain for IT providers, as Ingram Micro is a critical distributor relied upon by managed service providers (MSPs) and value-added resellers (VARs).The podcast also discusses the recent shift in the desktop operating system market, with Windows 11 surpassing Windows 10 in market share. Despite this milestone, the adoption of Windows 11 has been slower than its predecessor due to stringent hardware requirements and a lack of consumer interest in upgrading. While the commercial sector is expected to see an increase in shipments as businesses transition to Windows 11, the consumer market remains weak, influenced by tariffs and inflation. Microsoft is preparing to offer extended support for Windows 10, allowing organizations to continue receiving critical updates as the end of support date approaches.Flamingo has launched OpenMSP, a platform aimed at helping MSPs and managed security service providers reduce software costs through open-source tools and AI-driven margin analysis. This initiative comes as software licensing and technician salaries consume a significant portion of revenue for these service providers. Meanwhile, Cloudflare has announced measures to block AI web crawlers by default, addressing concerns over unauthorized content scraping. This move could lead to a new content licensing model for AI training, potentially creating new revenue streams for content-heavy clients.The episode concludes with a tribute to Alan D. Weinberger, the founder of the ASCII group, who recently passed away. His contributions to the IT community and the establishment of a supportive network for MSPs are recognized as significant. The podcast emphasizes the importance of community in the technology-driven business landscape and encourages listeners to consider the human aspect of the industry. Additionally, it highlights the need for robust backup solutions, such as Comet Backup, to protect against potential disruptions in the face of increasing cyber threats.  Four things to know today  00:00 Global IT Distribution Disrupted: Ingram Micro Hit by SafePay Ransomware04:05 Windows 11 Overtakes Windows 10, but PC Market Shows No Signs of a Consumer Upgrade Boom08:55 MSPs Face New Decisions: Block AI Crawlers, Monetize Content, or Embrace Open Source?14:01 ASCII Group Mourns Loss of Founder Who Championed MSPs for Four Decades  Supported by:  https://timezest.com/mspradio/https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Richard Campbell is out this week! Microsoft continues to make changes to Notepad as it tests 'lightweight text formatting' in Notepad. 22H2, 23H2, and 24H2 got preview updates. And Microsoft has reportedly delayed its first-party Xbox / Windows gaming handheld. WindowsTHE GREAT NOTEPAD CONTROVERSY OF 2025 Microsoft announced it was testing "lightweight text formatting" in Notepad. This is one of MANY changes its made to Notepad in recent years. The community has collectively lost its s#$t - most thought this was RTF support - it's not. Everyone is wrong. In defense of Notepad. 24H2 Last Tuesday, 22H2/23H2 got a preview update in Week D, but 24H2 did not. The 24H2 update appeared later, with a ton of new features as expected - it's possible an out-of-band update requirement is responsible for the delay. Now we know for sure what's coming on Patch Tuesday next week. Windows Insider updates Today, in Canary: Energy saver in Intune, re-rollout of Phone companion, more. Dev and Beta (24H2): Quick machine recovery, Phone Link improvements - Plus, more just in Dev. Canary: Voice access and some bug fixes. Microsoft makes more DMA changes to Windows 11/Edge We all need these changes. Apple needs to pay attention. Also, hilarious: Apple copies what Microsoft did in the 1990s. Twice. Earnings: HP Dell Nvidia Microsoft 365/AI Microsoft announces (internally) its third major AI reorg in 15 months - Too ... slow? Microsoft is killing password management/autofill in the Microsoft Authenticator app (announced previously, but now a warning is showing up in the app). Good, you should use a third-party password manager anyway. Also, it's really an identity manager. Also, wake up. When/why to use Microsoft Authenticator. And why you should also use Google Authenticator. June 2025 update for the new Outlook adds tons of new features. Research and Analyst AI agents are now GA in Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can experiment with short, phone videos on your phone with Bing Video Creator. FU, OpenAI! NYT licenses its content to Amazon. Samsung may drop Gemini for Perplexity. Xbox/Gaming Microsoft has reportedly delayed its first-party Xbox/Windows gaming handheld. Xbox continues to be in a holding pattern on hardware - Theories include an Arm revolution in waiting and Amy Hood getting serious about trying to make this business profitable. Are handheld gaming PCs the next Netbook or mini-tablet ... or this is market real, sustainable, and big enough to matter? SteamDeck/Linux could be a problem here - related to this, Nvidia news. Microsoft reaches its first-ever agreement with a game studio union. Semi-related: J Allard is one of about 100 former Microsoft execs at Amazon now, and we have an update. Tips and picks Tip of the week: You can replace OneDrive/Google Drive with a NAS. My Synology NAS is better than expected as a Little Tech replacement for OneDrive and Google Drive. This changes everything App pick of the week: Microsoft Edge 137 Edge 137 has quietly emerged as the biggest release of this browser since its inception. Edge 137 adds PIP and business improvements, removes Wallet Hub and some truly pointless features. It adds Windows 11 App action support to PWAs. It brings Game Assist for Game Bar to everyone.
