The beginning of the end
neelsmostert@... 17th Jul 2009
Indeed the past few weeks have shown the cracks in what is Microsoft to be widening. The introduction of Google Chrome OS as well as the success of Linux distros, open source productivity suites and the move to open source software has the software giant up in arms. For too long has it held onto its non-open source software and patents in an attempt to monopolize the market but with the move of Apple to Intel processors and with the likes of Ubuntu Linux making Linux more user friendly than ever, Microsoft is starting to feel the strain. In mobile markets, it's loosing share to Nokia's Symbian and Google's Android operating systems. In terms of search engines, they'll keep trying to produce the next big thing up until the last day before they finally close their doors. Already we have seen Microsoft closing some of it's gaming studios. How long until they close their doors for good? Only time will tell.
