Microsoft's mixed scorecard
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft turns 31 this year, and it's showing signs of age.
|
| The Redmond, Wash.-based company remains the largest software company in
| the world and one of the two or three most influential in the technology
| market. Still, with success has come size, and the giant has not moved as
| rapidly into search or music as smaller competitors.
|
| [...]
|
| Microsoft asserts that the features of Vista will spur upgrades. Gartner,
| however, is already throwing cold water on that and telling customers to
| upgrade gradually.
|
| [...]
|
| Linux, though, could begin to make inroads here as well. Intel has
| even designed cheap Linux desktops for PC makers.
