MS is about to learn how hard it is to build trust in commercial markets, and why it’s a terrible decision to set that on fire for a short term profit. Honestly, it’s hard to find a better example of a company that had a more comfortable and ideal position in their market, that just decided to disrupt itself without any pressure or prompting. You wanna gamble, you gotta be ready to lose.

I’m still on the fence as to whether their current CEO is just a complete business illiterate, or some kind of corporate Manchurian candidate… It’s sure LOOKS like malicious mismanagement to me, a nobody pleb.

I don’t think that guy is as smart as he thinks he is. Maybe it’s all the evidence that Microsoft is literally committing suicide on his watch… maybe it’s a hunch… but the suspicion it’s strong.
