Microsoft, the new RIM?

How far will they have to drop before they turn the ship around? They're basically buying 'success' with WP8 and their majority control with Windows forces Windows 8's sales. Thats not a good long term strategy. And 8.1 doesn't appear to actually resolve any of the complaints with Windows 8 either.

Although, they've implemented Boot to Desktop, a slight positive. Thats less you have to see the horrid Start Screen on your desktop or laptop. But if you click that start button, bam, Start Screen. So much fail there its mind boggling.

Microsoft is becoming so inept on the sales/marketing end that it defies reason. "Customers want a start button. Let's put it back in!". No assholes, we want our nice, efficent start menu back, not a fucking button that goes to Metro. Jesus H Christ are you that stupid?
