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.

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...
