Note that this is not the first time I went to visit Microsoft Operations Pte Ltd for something. The previous one was due to the fact that I got to collect the Tech Elite T-Shirt as the prize and this time, it was about the upcoming Windows 10. All the features were pretty known to me as seen in the Windows 10 Live Stream although there were certain things I didn't know of such as the concern about enforced upgrade to Windows 10 for enterprises which could be a problem if left unprepared. Thankfully, the enterprises have higher control as stated by Microsoft that they can choose to block the automatic upgrade to Windows 10 once finalized because going for automatic upgrade to Windows 10 while in beta phase is going to be a wrong and bad idea.
This came to me from Singapore Windows User Group Facebook page and nobody knows who made this group. Sure, Mr. Desmond Tan inherited that group but even he isn't sure on who made that. There were demonstrations he did like the Continuum, Cortana, Start Menu and even other enhancements done to Windows 10 as well. Hmm, will I be beta-testing Windows 10? I don't know honestly when. And, as of present time, Cortana is still at beta phase for US English and there may be British English which is what the local English in my country is based on but the thing is, the local English is still not in Cortana so there may be difficulties in her understanding that.
Of course, most of the group members are pretty much working in the company and Raffles Place is seriously full of people going to work dressed up in business outfits and there are some of us who are still students all along attending this according to the way the communication goes.
Lastly, there was an Instagram photo-taking session during the break. All you had to do was to get photo-taken holding the Surface device and then use your Instagram account to enter the respective hashtags with the photo of that so that people will be able to see it and you will get the movie tickets for that. There might be some animated movies I wanted to watch the last time but too bad I missed them and that was a shame for me as a nerd.
