They've had the Xbox, a successful image of cool for nearly a decade and it hasn't helped the rest of the business. They spent half a billion advertising some version of windows mobile (which was it? I never saw the adverts), another half billion on corny windows 7 adverts (which get worse and worse) that was pointless because anyone who didn't want mac would automatically get windows 7. Some might say it's a turnaround soon purely because Balmer will get fired soon. There's no chance he'll get replaced by someone un-safe, un-boring.
