Reports of Microsoft's End are Greatly Exaggerated, Way Premature, and Wishful Thinking

This article: Microsoft's 'big bang' could be its last - page 2 | Tech News on ZDNet is long on schadenfreude and short on reality.

Something like this comes out every time Microsoft announces a ship date (and they should be called slipped dates) for a new product or service. It ignores the one important fact, which is that Microsoft's biggest competitive problem is other Microsoft products.

Isn't it funny how those new capabilities eventually become a competitive necessity? They aren't the Borg, but resistance is futile, we will be upgraded.
