You need to get your facts straight first before you write a Microsoft hate article. Your almost as bad as AKH. Microsoft never acquired Yahoo so you can't say it was a failed acquisition for that. Microsoft Vista was quite good for an OS, its bloggers who gave it a bad rep only because it was "Microsoft", see the Mojave experiment on that one. Microsoft is also one of the top competitors in the cloud. I'm sure your aware of live@edu which is cloud based educational suite. Azure is going well. I just don't understand where your first paragraph came from. The Kin was killed because of Verizon, not Microsoft. You need to go to Verizon and ask them why they thought they could charge teens who don't have jobs to pay full price for a data plan. That was completely out of Microsoft's control.
I wouldn't mind a split of Microsoft though, because 3 Microsofts (or 8 if you look at their key focuses) are better than 1 Microsoft. I'm surprised you would agree with this considering your general distaste for the company. Although they would work a heck of a lot better as one company so they can integrate each division into their new products, 3 Microsofts will give you 3 times the amount of Microsoft required in your daily diet. Now, as a Microsoft hater are you sure you really want this?
