RE: Didn’t they just buy Skype as well?

Microsoft’s purchase of both Nokia and Skype is part of a plan to dominate.

Nokia is going to shelve their smartphone OS, Symbian in favor of Windows. The purchase of Skype is also part of the scheme. There is method to their madness.

Whether this madness will succeed is going to be interesting to watch. Skype supports various operating systems (Windows being just one of them). Will Microsoft continue to support the other operating systems, or slowly abandon them to concentrate on Windows? Who knows what their plans are...

Somehow, I think the next few years will either see Microsoft dominant once again or just a shell of their former self.
