I find this interesting, mainly because personally I'm less hostile towards the company than I was 4-5 years ago. I think that overall, the "evilness" of MS has abated somewhat, and I no longer feel it necessary to scrutinize every action they take to see how it might be screwing over the customer.
I wonder how much of the decline is based on the entertainment side of MS, such as their push of the Xbox platform. Perhaps the business-types see this as MS losing focus from what they care about, software solutions for their companies.
- ashu 19y agoCould it be because MS' relevance has reduced drastically in a lot of places? Its monopoly is going away, slowly but surely. Office is still a killer, but indications are that we will get other powerful choices - one sunny day. (In fact, most light document editing is easily accomplished by Google Docs.)
