| While there was almost certainly an element of typical Microsoft-ian
| analyst gaming, this will still an unusual move, doubly so in the

| that Vista uptake is poor anyway. For Ballmer to add to those worries
| with highly specific concerns about that key product was testimony
| to how there is real problem here.
