For Windows, 2008 Was a Roller Coaster

,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft is used to criticism; after all, it's a standing joke that the 
| third version of any Microsoft software is the first one that works right. 
| But the backlash against Windows Vista in 2008 was unprecedented. The new OS 
| had been out for a year, finding its way into new consumer systems through 
| 2007 but not getting much adoption by business.

| Wow, a tough day for Windows.

| BusinessWeek reports that HP, the world’s biggest PC company, is so troubled
| by Vista’s ‘tepid reception’ and Apple’s resurgence that it is developing its
| own operating system. Meanwhile a New York Times columnist writes on his blog
| that Windows is “already dying a death by a thousand cuts.”

Microsoft Is Giving Up on Windows

,----[ Quote ]
| It's true: Microsoft has confirmed that it's abandoning Windows as we know
| it. Cagey as ever, the Microsofties won't say when it'll happen, but they
| have talked a little bit about what the next OS is going to look like--or not
| look like.
