CE… was a wird alien no one know exactly what to do with it

Windows CE had the portable device market absolutely locked down circa 2003 -- not including Blackberry which had all the smartphone market, but CE had everything else. And then MS just said "fuck this market completely" and gave up.

My favorite thing about CE was that Microsoft unironically referred to it as "WinCE". It just doesn't get better than that.
