This Week's Stories

• Goodbye to Sets, hello to less sucking

Microsoft has shelved Sets for the long term (and likely, permanently).

Tabbed "experiences" are still coming to the Console and likely Explorer (and Notepad?)

To those wondering about claims that Sets isn't really dead, remember: This is exactly how they 'killed' Band 3 and Andromeda

• But long-live Microsoft Paint!

Related: These two events (Sets, Paint) speak to the good and bad of Windows 10 today

Good: Microsoft has removed most of what sucked in Windows 10 in version 1903!

Bad: Inconsistency is rampant in the OS still. Just look at the icons and at the inconsistent application of Fluent design elements.

• Surprise: Windows 10 1903 is available (early) on MSDN! It showed up quietly a week ago.

It's also on the Evaluation Center for those who know enough to look for it

• Meanwhile, 1903 remains in testing in the Release Preview ring and is due out in "late May"

Microsoft's 'early' release of 1903 on MSDN seems to be linked to its call for devs to start writing for 1903

Related: MS is blocking 1903 on PCs with SD cards and/or USB devices inserted

• Who wants an EdgeBook? What if Chredge is really about making a true Chromebook competitor, one that is based around Microsoft and AAD accounts instead of Google?

Semi-related: Chredge expands to 32-bit Windows 10. Baby steps.

• Microsoft buys an RTOS maker

Express Logic, the maker of ThreadX, is one of the big players in the microcontroller OS space

What does this mean for Azure Sphere? And for Microsoft's IoT strategy, as a whole?

Tips and picks

• Tip of the week: Sync Chredge with Edge Mobile
• App pick of the week: PWA Builder 2.0
• Enterprise pick of the week: Global ONLINE Azure Bootcamp
• Enterprise pick no. 2: G Suite-to-Office 365 migration tools
• Codename pick of the week: Catnip
• Beer pick of the week: Cloudburst Brewing REALLY SOLID AMAZING LIQUID
