Microsoft is getting greedy. Seeing the success of Apple and of Google's Nexus products, it seeks to do the same by releasing Surface. Microsoft's greed made it completely forget the role that its OEMs had in its own success, so much so that it neglected to tell many OEM partners about Surface until the Friday before the announcement, and to many others didn't tell them at all. If Surface does not sell like hotcakes, it will be big trouble for Microsoft, and they won't be able to get out of it by firing anyone.
