I know plenty of people at MS. With the free movement policy MS has for people to move around it is clear to most of the MS people I know and outsiders that MS is using the economy as reason to cut the fat. They cut 3000 people worldwide. Yet in the US alone they have over 600 current jobs available. I know 2 people that recently took positions at MS. The people they are letting go are poor performers that they dont want to move elsewhere in the company.
Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.
