Good Times, Bad Times. MS's been through them before, and was able to come out and be industry leader, always. And personally, There's nothing wrong with MS business model. It is funny that the same people who screams their lungs off that MS "ecosystem" is too close, now complain that it is NOT close and proprietary enough.

As long as MS stays out of these trends and just do what it does, it is safe and secure. "If it works, don't fix it!" But of course, Do I want them to pay more attention to a regular consumer, and not just a corporate IT Executive? Definitely, YES!
