I suppose you can debate the definition of "crisis", but how you can you even suggest that Microsoft is not in crisis with a straight face? This is the same logic of RIM or Nokia circa 2008: sales are up, profits are up, what's the concern? If Mocrosoft were not in crisis, Steve Ballmer would still be CEO. The crisis is that the once dominant markets of Windows and Office are now becoming marginalized as PCs become dwarfed for mobile devices. The iPhone - laughed at by Ballmer in 2007 - by itself makes more annually than all of Microsofts businesses combined. Microsoft was an early mobile device player and yet was almost completely out-competed. Microsoft's only remaining stronghold, as with IBM, is the enterprise. And that's also under heavy attack by Amazon, Google, and the Linux/BSD development ecosystem.
