Microsoft: We are focusing on eight core businesses
- frognibble 16y agoI find it odd that one of the core businesses is a type of user (business users) while the other seven are products.
- byoung2 16y agoSounds a lot like General Motors a few years ago, with Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Saturn, Hummer, Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick, GMC. They just spread themselves too thin. Bankruptcy actually did some good because it forced them to shed the underperforming brands. Sometimes I think that Microsoft could have been better off if the antitrust lawsuits had broken it up into separate companies a decade back.
