Enough with the softballs Loverock

You gotta stop lobbing in these softballs and give me something harder to refute:

---Ignored the internet for years and years?---

http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/work/handy/gates.shtml
"His first book, 'The Road Ahead', was published in 1995. Gates famously ignored the Internet."

---Playing catch up in every market?---

Certainly every emerging market. Search, online advertising, they're desperately trying to catch up to Google and others.

---They lead in gaming consoles---

Aren't they still #2 behind Sony, and playing catchup? Has the 360 turned a profit yet?

---They lead in mobile devices---

Gonna have to be more specific here, as I think Nokia might grumble with you.

---Can't predict the release date? Vista is due in November for businesses. January for retail.---

And you still believe this. How touching. Naive, but touching.
