Well...
Since Ballmer does not know what he is doing I suppose that explains the first dip in revenue in 23 years, an OS that will be just as big a failure as Vista (Win 7), a desktop office suite that will be ignored in favor of other online options, an mp3 player that will never be a viable competitor to the iPod and a gaming system that will bleed customers to the Wii and Playstation. So I guess Microsoft is a big failure of a company that will never ever be able to turn itself around in today's world.

So I should pretty much not bet on Microsoft ever having anything successful because their top brass is just a bunch of dimwitted morons with no clue about what happening in the market.

Microsoft is doomed.
