Video: Clippy crashes Jimmy Fallon's show during Windows 10 launch segment

SlideShow: Three generations of Motorola Moto G

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

The Moto G has always been an impressive smartphone not just for the topline features it offered to entry-level and midrange users, but also because Motorola managed to price it affordably and make it available contract-free.

We were impressed by the first generation Moto G as well as the subsequent 2nd Gen which introduced more water resistance as well as 4G-LTE in some markets. The Moto G (3rd Gen) looks to be the best and most refined version so far. It feels solid, well put together and is also lighter and less chunky than its predecessor. 

We're loving the new colour combinations and the removable shells are durable and also water resistant. Here are some shots of the three generations of Moto G devices hanging out together.

First look at Moto G (3rd Gen)

London - Motorola's Moto G is an unlikely success story but also a great example of how to create the perfect smartphone for the most number of potential users. Initially created as an entry-level and emerging market model to cover countries and price points out of reach of the Moto X, the Moto G has turned into the company's biggest moneymaker and most popular handset in a matter of two years.

In Canada, Moto G will be available from Bell Mobility, Koodo, TELUS or Virgin Mobile starting July 31, or at Wind Mobile in the coming weeks. Hit jump for our first impressions.

Windows 10 ushers in a new era for Microsoft

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

Windows 10 is officially available starting today and for free to many exisiting Windows 7 and Windows 8 users in 190 countries who have opted for the update and whose hardware supports the features and capabilities that the much awaited OS offers.

Restoring a lot of the familiarity of the desktop-focused Windows 7 OS from 2009, Windows 10 does bring significant features to exisiting desktop users as well as touchscreen or 2-in-1 devices.

Many exisiting Windows users have received the option of 'reserving' their copy of Windows 10. This has allowed Microsoft to slowly install the necessary files and drivers on those PCs which will receive a staggered rollout to Windows 10 starting today. Microsoft is hoping to get 1 billion devices in the next 2-3 years.
