Whatever you think of these recent happenings, one thing is clear: not a single one of the most exciting events in computing Buzz, gigabit/second fibre networking, iPad, Android and the rest has come from Microsoft.

It has consistently failed in the online search market... Microsoft can't even get the indexing and search right on their own content!
When searching for a MS KnowledgeBase article, I typically find nothing useful using the KB search, but can find what I want in Microsoft's knowledgebase using Google. Once I know the article number, I can find it with MS KB search, but not using keywords/phrases.
If you can't even get basic knowledgebase searching to work, and it's your own flippin' content, how do you expect to be relevant for Internet searching???

Your obsession with Microsoft is clinical. Seek help.

On the plus side for Microsoft, Windows Mobile 7 looks to be pretty good. It won’t be a game changer like Apple or Google products, but it should at least get Microsoft back in the game as a relevant competitor.

Microsoft has Visual Studio 2010 . What is comparable to that?
Windows 7 is the best imo.

xbox live is the darling of online gaming.
Clearly this author is biased, but he does have some good points.
