> It's a desperate bid, and I don't think it's in their DNA to succeed I'm not so sure. I think their DNA is changing pretty rapidly these days. Office for iOS is better than Office for Windows RT. Windows Azure services are actually really good, with tons of documentation on how to use them across all platforms (iOS, Android, Javascript, Node.js, etc). It feels as though the last few decades, every team has been beholden to the Windows/Office hegemony, whereas now teams have the direction to make a good product on their own terms. Without having to answer the question "how will this keep Windows/Office dominant", the massive amount of talent at Microsoft can finally start to shine, and I really think we're starting to see the genesis of that environment lately. It's too early to tell, but I'm pretty hopeful.
