The Surface sums up for me why Microsoft is a disappointment
Completely agree. Microsoft can't win for losing. They have some great products and the cash to really make a dent, then they completely flub the opportunity. I feel like they're trying to cast too wide of a net and in doing so miss the important details.
They have almost the polar opposite approach of Apple, who will happily give up features in order to have other features work solidly (in my opinion). A former boss of mine once said that users will forgive a lack of features, but not a lack of stability/usability. I agree with that. I'd rather have a limited set of features that WORK than a larger set of features that "sort of" work. I don't know if this comes from Microsoft's background of working with corporate partners (and delivery dates are important to fulfill a contract, bugs or not) or what.
