Weakening dollar means other currencies are worth more in dollars. Since Microsoft very likely has more revenue than expenses abroad, this means their revenue should be increasing faster than their expenses. Practically every company is getting negatively affected by the recession. With companies going bankrupt and downsizing, less PCs are needed and therefore less software purchases. Companies are also trying to save money, which will also mean delays or cancellations of XP->Vista upgrades, for example.
