We were only starting to get over the Courier, moving on after a delicious initial exhibit, a delish unpractical walkthrough, the heartbreaking cancellation, as well as the inevitable fallout. Now, Microsoft is dragging us back down memory line with the taking of the new obvious covering the design of a thing. It was filed behind on January 19, right after the CES which we’d (futilely) hoped would give us a glance of Courier in the strength, and which obvious has just right away been approved. So, Microsoft officially owns the design of a thing, as well as a subject now is either they’ll ever essentially do anything with it other than sprinkle mementos similar to this about from time to time and remind us what might have been. You’re the cruel mistress, Steve Ballmer.
