,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft got things seriously wrong when it released Vista and the company
| knows it. In the past, the absolute market dominance of Windows on the
| desktop has allowed Redmond to get away with such mistakes. That may no
| longer be the case now that Google has entered the operating system market
| with its Linux-based Android platform.

| and we'll see Google more and more as a competitor in the desktop operating
| system business than we ever have before."
