 for commercial uses.
The company had envisaged HoloLens as a gaming and entertainment unit, but the company says its horizons for the device are changing thanks to interest from the business sector.
With increased enterprise interest Microsoft has focused on making more business oriented applications for the HoloLens platform.
Chris Capossela, Microsoft’s chief marketing officer, explained to GeekWire that the company was taken aback by business interest, but has now adapted its vision for HoloLens moving forward.
“We totally underestimated the commercial interest in this thing. The team who built it, a lot of them had their roots in Xbox. Alex Kipman and Kudo [Tsunoda]. And so they originally envisioned it as something more along those lines, but as we started to show it to people, we were blown away by the commercial interest.“
Developer HoloLens kits are already available after Microsoft started rolling them out after a Build 2016 announcement last week. What has surprised many is how consumer ready the HoloLens is as a piece of hardware, it already looks above a proof of concept device.
Indeed, Microsoft has confirmed that the device could ship to consumers as it is, but as admitted that the $3,000 cost is prohibitive. The only way the company says it will release the expansive HoloLens is when the level of content is of a high standard, with enough content available to make sure the price is not a deciding factor.
Indeed, while HoloLens will change the way in which we consume media and play games (along with virtual reality), Microsoft says the Developer Edition is finding more interest from business.
“ Early users are primarily big companies and groups,.”Yep. WW1 was mostly about killing people. WW2 actually is the most complex war theater in all of history. A lot of factors played a major role.

Technology, supplies, ressources, troop morality, moral of the country, supplie lines, weather, economic models, idealogys, military doctrines etc.

WW2 is the most complex war that ever happend. WW1 was way easier to understand. While some factors played a certain role the main strategic focus after 1915 was more or less bleeding out the enemy at least at the west front.Unfortunately, the guy deleted all his posts.

He was basically equating Taylor Lewan's trade value to Brandin Cooks.  He said their trade value is roughly the same because of how our teams value them.  We tried to argue that looking from an unbiased standpoint, there is no way that a top left tackle in the league has the same trade value as a guy that's *maybe* a top 20 receiver.

No matter what our response was, he'd always copy and paste pretty much the exact same thing you're seeing copy and pasted everywhere.The outdoor track and field season officially got underway on Friday with two different meets in Northern California.
