To quote a poster on another forum:
“...there’s a certain amount of schadenfreude involved, watching Microsoft repeatedly crash and burn, after having put up with decades of Microsoft using monopolistic tactics and dirty tricks to try to kill their competition. Turns out when they have to compete [by the merits of their product alone] on a level playing field, they’re just not very good at it.”
Really? While they do struggle from time to time, when they have their eyes on a market they end up moving in and setting up a pretty big footprint.
Example: Servers
Example: XBOX
Example: Search (Bing)
Next Example: Windows Phone
One more example:
Net PCs (used to be all linux based now they are all windows based). I use all in a relative sense.
