1) The servers and tools division is now a $15 billion business
True, Microsoft has come a LONG way in the last decade. Their server platforms and tools are now pretty good. There are still some headaches, but nothing's perfect.
3) Xbox and Xbox Live are a big money makers now
Good, then maybe you can cut the costs for us. But big money makers = continued platform support, so that's good. And the quality control and defective design issues are long solved, which makes the Xbox a good buy now.
4) Windows is expected to keep blowing the doors off
Yep, After almost a decade of trying, Microsoft finally got a worthy successor to XP, and one that's almost as good as its target, OS X. Microsoft needs to remember to lead a moving target, not shoot at where it is now.
5) Bing is making Google look bad
Ain't competition great?
8) Microsoft is about to get back into the phone business
Please, no, unless it's worlds better than before.
6) Microsoft treats its employees amazingly
As an aside, this is true as long as you're actually a full employee, which isn't so easy. Microsoft loves to use and abuse temps though.
“Microsoft finally got a worthy successor to XP, and one that’s almost as good as its target, OS X. “
Better actually but we’re not supposed to go there remember.
“Microsoft loves to use and abuse temps though. “
Most big companies do.
