Deck chairs on the Titanic
And MSFT is rearranging them. The flaws in the company's ability to execute are cultural. You could put Ghengis Kahn in charge of Windows development and it's still not going to ship on time. Although the punishments handed out at lunch time would be a pay-per-view event.

MSFT is going to die the death of a million razor cuts. Okay, "die" isn't the right word. Shrink would probably fit better. MSFT is going to shrink from millions of razor cuts.

Office 2007 is very nice, but OpenOffice can replace MS Office for 95% of the workforce. LAMP stacks are very competitive and reliable delivery platforms. You can't pray on your MCSE and wish away reality. MSFT market share is going to continue to shrink. They're yesterday's technology news.
