"Steve was a phenomenal leader who racked up profits and market share in the commercial business, but the new CEO must innovate in areas Steve missed—phone, tablet, Internet services, even wearables."
Why does MS insist it has to be everywhere there's any money to be made? Apple is happy being a phone/tablet company, Google is the Internet gig, but MS has to have a finger in every pie, right?
- jiggy2011 13y agoI guess because they always have, it's the position they are most comfortable in. A company where everybody uses Windows desktops and Windows tablets and phones is much more likely to buy Office and Windows servers because of the whole vertical integration. Once you start letting non MS technology through the door you start to lose that and people will look more closely at non MS solutions in other areas.
- lostoptimist 13y ago"Google is the Internet gig" That's not really true. Google is trying to capture nearly everything, too. Enterprise (docs), phone, tablet, computer, search, advertising, social, ISP, wearable products (Glass), etc.
