    HoloLens IRL: What it's like in Microsoft's version of augmented reality
    SAN FRANCISCO — I really didn’t get comfortable with the most recent version of the HoloLens until I got comfortable. I’d traveled to San Francisco, California, ostensibly for the Microsoft Build Developers conference, but my real quarry was the company's now-shipping augmented-reality headset, the HoloLens Development Edition. It’s finally shipping to developers who preordered for $3,000. This wasn’t my first experience with HoloLens, but it was the first time I’d get to see the packaging, unbo..

    Orbital survival simulator 'Adr1ft' floats to Vive in May
    When I spoke with creator Adam Orth at E3 last year he said that making the game was a form of therapy for him, following his exit as creative director for Microsoft's gaming division. "The destroyed space station is a metaphor for my life at the time," he said. "This isolation is that I felt entirely alone. Instead of talking about it, I just made a game about it."

    FBI Tests Technique's Ability to Unlock More Versions of iPhone
    WASHINGTON—The Federal Bureau of Investigation is testing the method used to crack a terrorist’s iPhone to see how many other versions of the device it could open, but it could take officials many more months to decide what to do with their newfound ability. The showdown between the FBI and Apple Inc. over the locked iPhone of San Bernardino, Calif., gunman Syed Rizwan Farook came to a halt this week when officials announced that an...

  • iPhone SE Is Apple's $30 Billion Bet On 4-Inch Screens

    iPhone SE Is Apple's $30 Billion Bet On 4-Inch Screens
    Instead of representing a seismic shift in iPhone strategy, the iPhone SE is a byproduct of Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) current screen size differentiation strategy. Apple has given the iPhone SE a very specific mission: succeed the iPhone 5s and entice a portion of the 240 million iPhone users still using a small screen iPhone to upgrade to newer hardware. Apple is placing a $30 billion bet that a 4-inch iPhone with a four-year old design, updated with newer components, will help accelerate the iPhon..

    Windows 10 will bring your Android phone notifications to your PC
    Microsoft is planning to bring Android phone notifications directly to Windows 10 PCs.

Cortana for Android will build up a user notifications store in the cloud, allowi..

    New Tesla economy car sets off a frenzy at showrooms in Tampa Bay
    TAMPA รข€” Daniel Rios walked into an auto showroom in Tampa Thursday afternoon and put down $1,000 cash for a car that he has not seen, touched nor driven. In fact, the car won't even come off an assembly line until nearly two years from now. But Rios only needed to know two things about this car. It will be a bargain, in his mind. And it is a Tesla. Across the country and here in the Tampa Bay area, Tesla's announcement Thursday that it will offer an economy version of its car set off a frenzy ..

  • Microsoft Office for Mac now supports add-in extensions

    Microsoft Office for Mac now supports add-in extensions
    Microsoft Office didn't get a ton of stage time at Build this year, but the company announced a handful of improvements for both users and developers. Probably the most notable was the news that "add-ins" for Office (which work similar to browser extensions) would be coming to Office for Mac for the first time. It's a smart move to get those add-ins out to the Mac, because they're already available on Windows, the iPad and the online Office interface. Making them work with Office ..
