Will Bill Gates return to try to save Microsoft?

- kls 16y agoOnce upon a time, Microsoft was considered one of the innovators of the tech world I don't know that, that statement has ever been true. I am not a big MS basher but I would not give them the crown of a tech innovator either. What I would say is they are good at strategic acquisitions and integrating technologies into their stack. They have done very well as a vertical software provider. They historically have been good at throwing a pile of money at a segment to catch up. This strategy has not been working so well for them lately, because the battleground has changed.
