That only works if there's no other reason for the delay, which I'm betting there is.   You're going to completely neglect the possibility that there are legit reasons for the delays and just cough it up to lack of commitment?   That makes no business sense to say the least.

I'm sure there are logistical reasons but at the end of the day Sony has a much better international distribution model. As we can see with the X360, Microsoft has never done very well in Japan and having a one year delay on the XB1 isn't going to help matters. At the moment Microsoft is alienating customers by having such a delay.

Hehe. It shortens to TAC4U.

 

Sounds good :)

George, TAC4U is right on this one to my opinion. A one year gap is very 90's, you just can't do stuff like that if you care about customers in affected markets. What legit reason could they have? Supply? Sony has the same constraints. Better announce official availability and then say oops sorry no stock than try to be honest and say "oh you have to wait one year for the privilege of paying for it while TIER 1 markets already have it". That's just insulting ,especially since they skipped markets where 360 is a huge success.

 

I do agree with you George that the Xbox in Japan jokes are played. Not only are they played, but they're not that true, plus they're often applied to all of Asia, which is just ridiculous.

 

Either way, MS should have done what Sony did in terms of global release, as it stands they just came across as dismissive and even prejudiced for no good reason. The majority of people want the console for games and can wait until Kinect voice support is added to their language or the local equivalent of Netflix comes onboard.

I don't know what all the reasons are, but they are there, it's clear really, the key point I brought up is that the delay doesn't show a lack of commitment or that they're not taking the market seriously.  If they have supply issues or channel issues or even software issues, then you'll have a delay.   And trying to sell something where say, half of the features, don't work and you have little content that interests that market as well doesn't help either.  What good does it do to sell it and just have it sit waiting for content to sell it?  I mean look at the Wii U, look at the boost it got just from Mario Kart 8.    Those systems were just sitting there, no one was buying them until some game they wanted for it was out, otherwise why rush to spend your money?

 

At least when the technical and or logistical problems are worked out and it's in all those markets on September then it'll have the content to help sell it as well, making it easier to sell.

But everyone i know in the markets where X1 was pushed back a year just wanted to play Ryse, Forza 5 etc. And most of them ended up importing a console anyway. They couldn't care less about having no video streaming services or whatnot. The content is the games, that's what people wanted. MS refused to see that and used it as a reason, thinking it would come across as legit. But for the millions of 360 users who were waiting patiently to upgrade it just seems like they were passed over and treated like second rate. I don't mean to divert the topic or start a new argument, but the one year delay was not a good move on the part of MS any way you look at it.

 

The only upside is that those who were asked to wait a year get a more updated system plus the choice if a lower entry price...but most true loyalists would have taken the earlier release, i'm sure.

I don't understand how delaying the release of a console equates to this. Pretty big leap. I'm sure if Microsoft had no reason to hold the console back then they wouldn't. It's not like they don't want to sell it.

Not to be offensive but you don't understand because it's not something that affected you. What's so hard to get? You're all ready to spend your money and the people you want to exchange it with tell you wait a year while we serve these customers first. It's not different than being told to wait outside a bar, club, or restaurant. Who likes a line when all you want to do is pay for something you enjoy and want to support? It's the same thing.

 

While i got mine while visiting family in the states, i live in a place that wasn't "tier 1" so it's only Sept. I know many people here and in other places that are avid 360 gamers and wanted an X1 day one, a year is too much. They really don't care what reason MS has for this, there's no valid reason for a year. Three months, even six, ok maybe. Ten months is too much and the way MS leaders worded it was not the best either. Not to mention MS played right into Sony's hands by limiting deployment.

What does this even mean? So... unless I'm affected by something I can't comment? Interesting point. So I guess by that definition, you can't comment either since it didn't effect you.

 

Honestly, I don't think you really believe that in order to relate to gamers as a gamer I have to be in their specific circumstances to grasp the idea of being in it myself. If I lived in Japan, sure it would be stupid. But I'm not grabbing my pitchfork over it, nor am I going to think I'm a "second rate" customer because I'm getting something later.

 

If that were true, then Japan thinks the other markets are "second rate" on a regular basis with Japanese game titles, often taking 1-2 years to release them in other markets. Or I guess Sony thought their own country was second rate when releasing their console later than in the US. This claim is just trying to fan flames that don't even exist.

 

I'm surprised so many people are ready to jump to the conclusion that they are just trying to be make them miserable and that their actions are that of a kid frying ants with a magnifying glass. They'd rather think that than try to understand that the world doesn't revolve around themselves and what's convenient to them at the time.

You are reading my tone completely wrong, i meant you can't really understand the situation because it didn't happen to you. You can sympathize, but in this case you choose not to, as you think it's not a big deal. Don't make it about some sort of entitlement thing - that would be expecting MS to give people Xbox for free. We're talking about active paying customers who were never given a reason for this delay.

 

And yes, Sony definitely treated their home user base as second rate, and Japanese developers/publishers definitely consider "Western" markets as not worth the bother and cost of releasing many titles. Sony most definitely regarded non-Japanese markets as secondary to Japan until PS3, which is why the PS4 launching in Japan four months later was quite a surprise.

 

I'm not trying to fan any flames, surprised that you think something like that. I didn't say MS tried to make anyone miserable or that they are evil, but they were incompetent with the release schedule and offended many long standing customers. If you don't understand why a delayed product might offend existing customers, then you either really lack empathy or are very relaxed, and that i would really envy.

 

Let's not argue over this, you don't agree - but as i said, it's easy to dismiss feelings and ideas that we don't feel personally affect us. And you were not personally affected by the one year delay in the X1 release schedule. Sure the world didn't grind to a halt, but we are in a gaming section. Honestly if you told me you were a fan of hobby X and brand Y decided to skip your market for a year i would never ask you why are you angry, why are you so self entitled. I'd totally understand.

I agree with Neo, there is definitely a mindset that the tier 2 countries are less important and it effects far more products than just the X1 or PS4. Many of the EU countries which X1 isn't in yet actually have great English speaking skills and many of them would choose to use it in that locale, instead of their native language. It sometimes looks worse on MS' part when it comes to Xbox Live features, especially true when you look back to the reveal last year and you see how many people outside of the US lost interest within minutes of the show starting. When everything is made for 1 country and the rest of us are forgotten about, it stings and people go elsewhere.

 

There obviously wasn't a delay in production as the US was flooded with X1 supply. I seriously doubt logistics are the issue seeing as the consoles are made in Asia. They don't ship them to US and back to Japan again when they roll out their support. Localisation has been the most common excuse it comes back to. For EU it's not much of an issue like I said, in Asia it is. Sony are able to do it much faster being that they're from the region and the languages are probably processed faster with experience. MS don't have the luxury nor the game lineup to accommodate the taste. Even PS4's was light on content that appeals to them beside a few titles like Yakuza IIRC. Why they chose to skip Japan is again rumour but most believe because the market has shrunk there and the war is won in US/EU.

This isn't bad news for PS4, it's good news for Wii U, and much deserved. Really wish i could afford a Wii U right now. Love that console.

 

Gotta do it when you can man. Wii U + PC is such a good combo right now. You got your multiplayer and proper next gen gfx, and you got nintendo exclusives and polished and perfect gameplay - you couldn't wish for anything else!

Looks like the Wii U outsold everything in Japan (almost 3 times more than the PS4). But what's surprising is even the PS3 outsold the PS4 by a small margin.

Wii U 19,312

3DS LL 18,776

Vita 12,859

PS3 6,922

PS4 6,508

3DS 4,957

PSP 1,421

Vita TV 1,098

Xbox 360 225

Number 1 selling game was Mario kart 8 with 325,892 copies, followed by Gundam Side Stories (PS3) with 82,048 copies, and some Japanese 3DS game with 36,868 copies.

I know, from my little experience with Wii U at other people's places it's easy to tell it's a great console. ZombiU...pains me not to play that game whenever I want. Not a huge Nintendo exclusive fan, but Mario Kart for sure, pure addiction right there, and there's the inevitable Metroid, which I also don't want to miss as it's going to be good. Plus X, the RPG. Right now i'm tapped, but maybe later in the summer if all goes well i'll be able to afford a lovely Wii U. She's got an HDMI port waiting for her right on my PC monitor as well :D

    • Microsoft brings Claude to its own Azure infrastructure, powered by Nvidia GB300 Blackwell

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Microsoft brings Claude to its own Azure infrastructure, powered by Nvidia GB300 Blackwell by Karthik Mudaliar Anthropic's Claude models are now generally available in Microsoft Foundry on Azure and are running on Nvidia's GB300 Blackwell Ultra systems. Nvidia wrote in its announcement that the models are hosted on Microsoft Azure and accelerated by GB300 Blackwell Ultra GPUs, with Quantum-X800 InfiniBand networking used to support larger agentic systems and specialized sub-agents that can operate across business domains. This is great for customers and enterprises that want to build autonomous and domain-specific AI agents using Claude without moving outside Microsoft’s cloud platform. Microsoft currently offers Claude models in Foundry in two forms: “Hosted on Azure,” which runs end-to-end on Azure infrastructure and is generally available, and “Hosted on Anthropic infrastructure,” which remains in preview. This separation is quite important for organizations that have procurement, compliance, data processing, or internal governance requirements tied to Azure. Anthropic currently has 11 Claude models listed in Microsoft Foundry, including Opus 4.8, Sonnet 4.6, and even the unavailable Mythos and Fable models. Billing is handled through Claude Consumption Units (CCUs). Microsoft says CCU is an invoicing unit for Claude models in Foundry, with token usage converted using Anthropic’s published per-model token rates. The usage is billed through Azure Marketplace just like models from other distributors and appears on the customer's Azure invoice, while eligible spend can count against a Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment. For starters, GB300 NVL72 is a rack-scale, fully liquid-cooled system that combines 72 Blackwell Ultra GPUs and 36 Grace CPUs. Nvidia has listed 37TB of fast memory, 130TB/s of NVLink bandwidth, and FP4 Tensor Core performance of up to 1,440 petaflops with sparsity. The deal is also part of a three-way partnership between Microsoft, Nvidia, and Anthropic. Under the deal, Anthropic has committed to buying $30 billion in Azure compute capacity and contracting additional capacity up to one gigawatt. Nvidia and Microsoft also said they would invest up to $10 billion and $5 billion in Anthropic, respectively.
    • WhatsApp is getting usernames, and you can reserve your preferred one now

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      WhatsApp is getting usernames, and you can reserve your preferred one now by Fiza Ali Sharing your phone number isn't always something you want to do, especially with people you've just met. Whether it's someone from a class, a local community group, or a sports team chat, handing over your number can feel like giving away more personal information than necessary. That's exactly the problem WhatsApp is trying to solve with its upcoming usernames feature. The company has announced that users can now reserve a unique WhatsApp username ahead of the feature's wider rollout later this year. Once usernames become available, they'll let people connect without revealing their phone numbers. It's a change that makes a lot of sense for group chats. Right now, everyone in the group can see your phone number. With usernames enabled, that won't necessarily be the case when someone contacts you for the first time. WhatsApp says it's opening username reservations early because more than three billion people use the app, meaning plenty of people are likely to want the same usernames. Reserving one now gives users a better chance of securing the name they actually want before the feature launches more broadly. If your preferred username is already taken, WhatsApp will also offer a built-in username generator to suggest available alternatives. The feature isn't only aimed at individual users. Creators, businesses, and organisations will be able to claim the same username they already use on Instagram or Facebook, making it easier to keep a consistent identity across Meta's apps. Furthermore, privacy is a big part of how WhatsApp is introducing usernames. There won't be a public directory where people can browse or search for usernames. Instead, people will need to know your exact username before they can start a conversation with you. Additionally, users can also choose to enable a username key, which adds another layer of control by requiring people to enter that key before sending a message. Once the feature rolls out, people who choose to use a username will no longer have their phone number shown when messaging a person or business for the first time. If you want to reserve a username, make sure you're running the latest version of WhatsApp, then head to Settings > Account > Username. The tech giant says usernames will roll out gradually over the coming months, and users will receive an in-app notification when the feature becomes available in their country.
    • How do you future-proof a home or small office network?

      By sphbecker · Posted

      When I think about a network, there are really two aspects, the hardware and the wiring. So here is what I would do for both. Wiring: Use Cat6A for the patch panel, outlets, and all structured cables (cables installed in walls). Run plenty of Wireless Access Point (WAP) cables, as a general rule, assume a signal can only pass through 2-3 walls and can't pass through a floor (that is conservative, but trust me on this if you want strong WiFi)  Cat6 patch cables are fine for now if you don't plan to run 10gig, those are easy to replace later if needed. Run OS2 single-mode fiber to anywhere you think you may have a server or sub-switch. (yes, single-mode for everything on a small network, don't mess with multimode unless you are at a scale where that minor cost and power savings will matter). If you really want to future proof, also run fiber to any high density WAP locations, it is likely that WiFi 8 and beyond WAPs will push the limits of 10g. Run 6-12 pairs of single-mode fiber between your MDF and the building's MDF, even if you only need 1 or 2 pairs now, those extra pairs will pay off down the road. Hardware: (its easy to say "get all the features incase you need them", so instead of futureproofing, I am going to take approach of suggesting areas worth investing in, and areas you can save money). Don't overspend thinking you need every feature on every port. You don't need 10g on every port, you don't need PoE on every port. Don't overspend on redundancy either, unless you are ready to buy two of everything, don't waste money buying two of some things and not others. Dual power supplies are worthwhile, but probably not HA or multi-path redundancy.  Get 1 "distribution layer" switch that your router/firewall will connect to as well as all your access layer switches below. This should be a fully managed 10g+ switch with a combination of copper and SPF ports, a few 25g uplink ports are nice for this switch. Given that you said it is a small network, I suggest also using that distribution layer switch for servers and WAPs, meaning it will need PoE. Speaking of wireless, get good professional tri-band WAPs, and either turn on the band stirring options, or limit 2.4 to an IoT only SSID. This will provide a solid WiFi capable nearly everything but the highest of bandwidth clients...you could even consider skipping wiring workstations depending on usage. Access layer switch for workstations and printers can be cheaper switches, 2.5g is a good sweet spot between price and future proofing, but even 1g is fine for most individual clients (the kind that could probably be fine on WiFi). You can consider saving a little on access layer switches by only getting 1 PoE switch for whatever needs it (remember your WAPs are connecting to the distribution switch, not here), and non-PoE for your workstations, because desk phones are falling out of favor. You can also save money here by not buying managed switches if you don't need them--but really do some soul searching there, if you go this route, then anything that isn't on your workstation VLAN would either need to be connected to the distribution switch, or its own access layer switch. Also, don't feel like you need a fancy fabric stacking switches for your access layer, that is the point of the higher-end distribution layer, to remove the need for things like that at this level. Home Hardware: I'm realizing the above assumed an office setting, if this if for your house and home lab then the above still applies, but you'll probably want everything managed and PoE, just because, but you probably also don't need multiple access layer switches. If your total port count is below 24, just skip separating distribution layer and access layer and just get one nice switch with the features you want. If you are at the point of considering a 48-port switch, I would instead get a nice high-end distribution switch for things that need it, and cheaper access layer switches with specs based on the needs of connected devices. For home use, don't worry about home running every device to the main switch, there is nothing wrong with running sub-switches for your media areas and office, those essentially become your access layer, just look for sub-switches with a 10g uplink so sharing bandwidth isn't an issue. Just make sure you always connect them to your distribution/main switch, don't daisy chain, the path should never have more steps than Client>Access>Distribution>Firewall>Internet or Client>Access>Distribution>Server if it is local.
    • Google Meet brings Gemini note-taking to AI Pro and Ultra subscribers

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Google Meet brings Gemini note-taking to AI Pro and Ultra subscribers by Karthik Mudaliar Google's Gemini-powered "Take notes for me" feature inside Google Meet is now available to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers. The features work on Google Meet for web as well as on mobile, and Google says that subscribers can use it for meetings they host in many supported languages. As the name suggests, "Take notes for me" allows Gemini to listen to a meeting, generate a summary, identify action items, and save the notes as a Google Doc in the user’s Drive. After the meeting, the organizer receives an email recap with the summary and action items, while the notes can also be attached to the related Calendar event depending on the meeting setup and sharing settings. The feature isn't automatically turned on for everyone, though. Google says that all meeting participants are notified when note-taking is turned on, and users can start it from the pencil icon in Meet or enable it for future calls through Meet’s meeting records settings. For work or school accounts, administrators can also control whether the feature is available and may require explicit participant consent for note-taking, recording, or transcription features. The feature first launched back in 2024, when it was available just for selected Workspace users. Over the years, Google added refinements and more options, including the ability to enable it when scheduling meetings via Google Calendar. Google's support docs say that the feature currently supports English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish, but only one language at a time. Meetings with multiple spoken languages are not currently supported, and Google recommends using the tool for meetings between 15 minutes and eight hours. The new feature makes Google Meet closer to its rivals that have AI tools already built in. Microsoft Teams has recently started offering Copilot and intelligent recap features that summarize meetings, surface highlights, and help with follow-ups, while Zoom’s AI Companion can also generate meeting summaries from desktop and mobile meetings.

Add new Finance::Quote source Finnhub.io: Free API key (personal/non-professional use) available at https://finnhub.io. Set FINNHUB_API_KEY environment variable to API key to use this source. As of June 2026, free tier API limit is 60 API calls/minute. The Investment Lots report has new optional columns for Computed Annual Growth Rate. Python Bindings: Improved translation of primary object (Account, Transaction, Split, etc.) so that they can be treated as normal Python objects. This is accomplished with SWIG magic so no existing code is obsoleted. Python Bindings: Better conversion of GLists to Python lists. Python Bindings: Destroy the QofSession in the Python Session dtor to prevent leaving the database locked.

The Add options summary option is removed because it's no longer optional. Remove remaining obsolete IMContext from sheet Fix blurry text in HiDPI offscreen-rendered widgets Add port field to database connection dialog: The convention of appending the port number after the host isn't obvious. When editing a split in the register treat the account as being changed only if it isn't the one selected before editing instead of if the user performed an edit Return immediately from qof_book_destroy if hash_of_collections is null. If qof_book_destroy is called on a QofBook* freshly created with qof_book_new (usually because it was used to create a session that now must be destroyed) it would try to empty the non-existent hash tables, crashing.
