Why Microsoft’s next CEO should break up the company
- angersock 13y agoWhat a stupid idea--a lot of the value prop of the Microsoft ecosystem is that it all works together. Additionally, the author's assertion that they aren't innovating is horseshit--the Kinect, the Xbox series, Windows Metro design, and several other things have done a lot to encourage innovation in several areas of industry. Balkanization into different companies makes no sense.
