M$ can't do anything right. Why do people still buy there products?

 

A little harsh - the following is better I think:

 

Vistas = too high specs at launch for OS and too much old code still buried in it plus rubbish drivers support at launch

Zune = pretty good now but minimal marketshare penetration

360 = good console marred by design faults due to rush to market with good library of games and good online

Office = stop already!  99% of people want a basic word processor.  Stop trying to milk these products you're not adding anything worthwhile create new useful apps or make Office faster, etc. but stop with the useless tweaking to justify another Office release.

 

MS aren't that bad - but I think they've struggled as they move to diversiy (after all at the end of the day from abig perspective Zune, 360, etc. is a tiny part of the electronics/home media marketplace, and MS are always going to be dwarfed by Sony, Apple, Panasonic, Samsung, etc.) and has found itself struggling with updating its OS and dealing with the fact that there is so much legacy in the code now.

 

 



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
