Old news! Death to Microsoft! The more interesting question is do they really not realize they suck? When you have Google as the #1 search engine being used within Microsoft and iPods as the #1 music players being used by Microsoft employees, I find it very hard to believe they don't know they suck.

- alive88 20y agoIn your two examples MS acknowledges the comparison (1) they entered search late, with the wrong strategy. they admit it. (2) Zune also entered late. but was an effort to get established in those markets. Both examples do not comprehensively define MS, or future of core MS strategies, or of the future of MS including search and player strategies
- zackola 20y agoOut of morbid curiosity, what would you say comprehensively defines MS, or future MS strategies? They seem to constantly try to branch out into established markets by throwing tons of money at every area they can think of without actually doing innovative work in any area. It seems they are generally left in the dust trying to catch up to established markets because they lack the innovation to develop and market anything new and interesting on their own.
