This article is overblown at best. Microsoft's core operating system and office suites remain absolutely dominant even if competitors are rising.
Yes but are these business licenses or consumer sales? Go to any college campus and see how many Windows laptops you see students using. Microsoft sales are going to businesses (who are entrenched in MS solutions) and people who "have always used Windows" (i.e. older folks who don't want to change).
Their brand is tarnished. I don't see them recovering from this easily.
