Oh my good what a load of bullshit, Microsoft still makes billions of profit every year. Maybe the guy who wrote this article meant it sarcastic.

The part where he predict that the struggling Sony will buy Microsofts Entertainment Device was the funniest lol.

Talk about doom articles... this one has it all! :D

Too bad that it is not forbes, just some random blogger who seems to have an agenda.

Ask that question in 5 years. If Microsoft fails to capture a share of the tablet market, itll slowly head towards irrelevancy in the post pc era.

The better question is how relevant tablets still will be in 5 years. It is often the same with this hype products a vast increase in the beginning and a rapid downfall when the hype is over.

The traditional pc exist since 30 years even more, its nothing that will be replaced in the forseeable future as oppose to this  tablets has to show if someone still cares in 5 years from now on for them. 

Yeah, because tablets won't use Servers, databases or any kind of office software. Videogame consoles and Skype will just vanish. Even without Windows, which just increased its market share to 92%, MS makes 12 billion USD per year.

1. Tablets will overtake laptops this year

2. Pc manufacturers' revenue and sales are going down, only Lenovo sold more

3. Intel's revenue are going down

4. The pc was never challenged in its entire life, tablets are a real threat. MS realized this and added tablet like interface to Win8.

Bit too early to be making these doom and gloom predictions on MS, isn't it?

Welcome to the doom club, Microsoft!

Everyone´s doomed now.

Last week it was Apple who was in trouble now it is MS, and next week who knows...

Yes, unfortunately.
