Incomprehensible
"Microsoft has not released a significant update to Windows
Media Player for Mac in some time."

MS has not release anything significant in years.

""It's basically a business decision for Microsoft," Anderson said.
"Like any other company, we have business priorities. Our focus
really is in delivering the best experience to Windows
customers.""

Yet this company claims over $US6 billion in R&D spending each
year. Where does all this money go?

It is incomprehensible that this amount of money could be spent
with next to nothing to show for it (especially given the the
products competitors like Apple are releasing all the time with a
fraction of the R&D spend).

What a pathetic company!
