    Fascinating case study on how a company grows to a certain level and then rots from the inside.

    I’m sure there are genius level marketing and finance dudes at Microsoft who can show how these changes look great on a spreadsheet. And I’m sure it works out for the next quarter or two or ten.

    Who knows though, maybe the consumer PC os selling businesses is dead. And selling consumer software licenses is dead. And the only way to get any revenue out of consumers these days is to sell their eyeballs to advertisers.

      Microslop learned how to sell ads in OS from Goolag. There’s no need to sell OS license.
