It can - financially. The classical business segment of office software is braking away. The classical Windows-style OS are under pressure. That'S why they dare this experiment with W8 so far unconvincing and and somewhat two-split design. Thjat'S why MS searches for new business models - the old ways will not work forever anymore.
If W8 does not become an immense financial success, MS will be in deep trouble, especially regarding its strategic position in the business. That'S why I find the opening essay even more surprisingf. For having the stakes so high they seem to be surprisingly unprepared.

For all the bad rep it got, I never really had big problems with it actually It crashed on me once in 2 years, and it has generally been a pleasant experience to use. It seems like MS is going down the IBM rout, with most of its profits coming from enterprise stuff. Windows is the 3rd most profitable division at Microsoft. Servers and Tools and Office both proved to be more profitable |

As a Professional with years behind me?
Anything MS throws out I'm ready for. But new people have to toss money at me which I find untowards. And I only do computer stuff as a hobby nowdays! A simple upgrade from DOS to DOS version was a snap. Now? Just make sure the fan is in place cause the stuff needs a place to hit! Every Tom, Richard, and Hellen out there is gonna screw up stuff SOOOO bad. |
