Background sauce Oliver?
It does sound interesting and perhaps in the future talking to Cortana might be what we except from a digital assistant and she might be in every corner of Windows... but it all seems like lot of promises and many disappointments from Microsoft. Since Windows 10 launch, they have been busy and they made a lot of promises but few deliveries. They always seems to be pushing those promises to the next release. I would rather for them to simply keep quite and surprise us than continually disappoint us with half baked delivery of large promises.
