[A Halla from Halla] Microsoft Should Get Off the Internet

[DrGroove]

Microsoft should just stop trying. Turn off your search engine. Kill MSN. Shut the whole thing down.

Keep your corporate site, and your development communities. The rest of it should be eliminated.

Focus on building the OS, browser, server-side software, etc. You've never understood nor properly executed the media aspect of the Internet. You're much better suited to work on the back-end aspects of the Internet, like your brethren Sun, Apple, Novell, RedHat, etc. You don't see them trying to be both behind the scenes and front-and-center, do you? For good reason. They don't really get it, either.

Apple comes close, and closer still since the whole incestuous Apple-Pixar-Disney thing went down. But still - Apple isn't out there trying to compete with Yahoo, or Google now, are they?

Windows security is still terrible. Your last OS release was a major letdown. It's time to regroup around the original mission, MS. Time to get your mojo back.
