A developing pattern

My guess: Steve is returning to their two monopoly profit
products, slashing their wasted USD8 billion a year R&D
(why research when you can't develop?) so he can improve
the MS bottom line before departing.

For the MS's big wigs it is all how they're remembered.
Like the little man that created nothing (copied plenty),
abused million of consumers then forms a foundation (how very
Rockefeller).

No better time for competitors (Google, Oracle) to target
margins on MS profitable products (windows and Office) - with
OOo and WINE.

IT is escaping the dark ages into a period of
enlightenment. For those of us that remember IT before
the evil descended it is a great time. Wouldn't want to be a MSCE
though;-)
