I don't see it as so bad, given how much others have written Microsoft off. I think their stock performance highlights how little they've done to build on their legacy and expectations. Now they have a chance. When I read the following, I don't see it in nearly as negative a light as others. The reality here that Nadella — to his credit — at least alludes to, is that the playing field is now level, the score is 0-0 (or more likely 0-0-0-0-0) and for Microsoft to win they’ll have to play hard, play fair, and win on their merits. And that’s what leads into the discussion of culture and how the company will do anything it must to succeed. “Nothing is off the table,” Nadella wrote. This is the most important part of the message and, indeed, is probably the only part that really matters.
