The best article I've ever read on the change at Microsoft was a memoir by Joel Spolsky (the "Joel on Software" blog) written in 2006. He wrote about having to pitch a project to Bill Gates, and how important it was that Gates had a technical background. See: http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2006/06/16.html

Hello all, I was sitting in a dentist's waiting room and I came across this article from the August 2012 (really!) edition of Vanity Fair. http://www.vanityfair.com/business/2012/08/microsoft-lost-mojo-steve-ballmer I know we all love to hate Microsoft, but after reading this I *almost* felt sorry for them. I guess many of you know all this, but I found it quite interesting reading. Good ammunition for all you Microsoft bashers... -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
